For many years the abortion in Colombia was forbidden. However, since 2006, the Constitutional Court of Colombia opened the door for allowing the procedure to be carried out when one of these three circumstances is incurred:
· When
the pregnancy endangers the health - physical or mental - of the woman, or her
life.
· When
the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest.
· When
there are malformations of the fetus that are incompatible with life outside
the uterus.

I think that abortion in Colombia should legalize it because it is unfair to bring the world to a baby to suffer, if we look at the causes for it we see that: if it is a risk to the life of the mother at birth the baby would have many complications since it is essential to have it in the first months of life, if the baby is the product of a violation because it is often not accepted by his mother, and if it comes with malformations if it comes with malformations it is obvious that he will not be able to fully enjoy all the rights and cannot have a decent life.
ResponderEliminarHello Laura, I agree with your opinion because I believe that the three circumstances in which abortion is allowed should be maintained. Furthermore, the gap should be opened so that abortion can be legalized in more cases, or, if possible, without any restriction. Thus, parents, mainly women, could really decide about their sexuality and their family.
EliminarDear friend, I agree with you because to bring a child to the world is a very big responsibility and more if the baby of a rape as a mother can reject that child.
EliminarBut in the case that the baby has bad training may not have all their rights for some substance, but a decent life if you can have.

ResponderEliminarDear friend, pregnancy is interrupted by the conditions of malformation of a fetus, this is not a good quality of life for the unborn, apart from that, it is well known scientifically and my knowledge as a nurse allows me to tell you that there are few children that due to the malformation they survive and there is even a spontaneous abortion, where, as you say, life is the one that prevails and the life of the woman is the one that should be taken as important.
EliminarWith regard to what you say of the irresponsible parents, the abortion is approved in certain circumstances, only when it is violated, that is, it is not irresponsibility but a crime before the woman. and when the life of the woman is in danger.

ResponderEliminarIn my opinion, under these three circumstances that are presented to us and abortion is acceptable, I completely agree, the right to life is likely to be violated, but one must also take into account, as the causal one says, life would be in danger. a woman, is a public health issue that every year produces the death of women as a result of clandestine practices of interruptions of pregnancy, then causal two speaks of a rape or incest, this woman being psychologically affected to such an extent that the Necessary affection would not be offered in the upbringing of this human being, and to finish I think it would not be good to bring a child to the world with malformations, since it could be discriminated against by society itself, affecting it psychologically and making life harder for him and for his relatives.

ResponderEliminarI think that abortion is necessary according to the constitutional court; In addition to the situations that they established, I believe that they should also take security measures to put an end to clandestine establishments that perform these types of medical procedures, which do not comply with the parameters and regulations of asepsis and antisepsis to perform them.
The Ministry of Health, should include within the authorization and implementation of medical-surgical procedures, the abortion, since , hospital centers lack this service and is not provided on time,which leads women to resort to these clandestine centers that put your life at risk.
Dear friend Carolina, I think your arguments are very well justified, in the sense of stating that it is correct that abortion has been approved for the three reasons indicated by the Constitutional Court of Colombia; and that abortion should also be prohibited in clandestine clinics for reasons of asepsis and medical safety.
EliminarAlthough I affirm to agree with you, I also disagree with the Constitutional Court, in which the abortion is approved when the pregnancy is the consequence of a rape or incest, because in this particular case the life of the unborn is a priority, that he is not to blame for acting as the rapist or perpetrator of the crime. I believe that there are enough tools to safeguard the life of the nasciturus, how to give it up for adoption or deliver it to the Colombian Family Welfare Institute.

ResponderEliminarIn my opinion, the abortion in Colombia must be legalized, especially in the stablished cases by the Constitutional Court in Colombia. It is important to make an observation about the unwanted pregnancies, which also must be considered as a damage to the woman's mental health, because It can heavily affect the psychological state of the woman. Furthermore of this, women must have autonomy over their bodies, and dont let those important decisions to other people. If the abortion is legalized, there will be options for who think that the abortion is a good alternative and who do not agree with this are not obligated to abort. But if the abortion is not legalized, the people who consider it a good option is obligated to continue with the pregnacy despite of their thoughs.
ResponderEliminarI believe that each one of us must take into account that not only the life of the woman is at risk, but also that of the fetus, so we must bear in mind that each one of us can suffer the same, even if it is through From a rape or not, the fetus may have a malformation, but today doctors help prevent malformations before pregnancy and during pregnancy to prevent abortion. Since abortion can only be done if a doctor proves it.
ResponderEliminarDear friend Helen, I want to express to you that I do not agree with your arguments, I think they are confusing and ambiguous; On the other hand, I think you could take a clear position on whether or not you agree with the abortion, in order to understand your thesis.
EliminarOn the other hand, I disagree with you, when you point out that doctors can approve abortions, which is not true since those who approve it are judges based on the ruling of the Constitutional Court. I think you can say that doctors can use conscientious objection to practice an abortion or not.

ResponderEliminarI do not agree with abortion, because small fetuses are innocent souls that are not to blame for the actions of adults, and the principles of our lives.
ResponderEliminarDear fellow, I do not agree with your point of view because according to the three circumstances in which abortion is allowed, it is not that each person is responsible for their actions.
EliminarIn my opinion I do not believe that a violation is the product of a separate act of the victim, because if it comes with malformations, it will not have a quality life.
In my opinion with reference to abortion in Colombia I agree with two causes of the pronouncement of the Constitutional Court of Colombia, but with regard to the causal when the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest, it would be important to keep in mind the Gestational time of the fetus, since it is an innocent being that if it does not show deformations must have right to live, in such cases I think that the State must oblige that there exist institutions for if his mother does not want to take care of him, in those places they are given care , protection and love.
ResponderEliminarMy friend, I like your way of arguing, but I must say that I disagree with your opinion on abortion in cases of rape or incest. I believe that not allowing it is a danger to the life and health of the mother. It has been shown that in those cases women may have suicidal tendencies and other harmful behaviors.
EliminarDear colleague, I think that this cause of abortion, for which sebastian disagrees with you, is quite complicated, but I think that abortion should be practiced with raped women, since these women are going to see the baby as that memory that changed their life.
EliminarThe Ministry of Health must determine a time limit for the voluntary termination of pregnancy. This should be in the first trimester of pregnancy, however, it is important to determine that this procedure does not affect the woman and that she agrees with this.
My friend, I agree with your idea of creating some institutions that are in charge of receiving these children, and then initiate adoption processes. It would be good to make this suggestion to the ministry of health. All this in order to guarantee the right to life and then an environment that provides well-being and love.
Eliminarhi mate jhasson

ResponderEliminarI agree that no one can be forced to have a child as a result of a violation that is the mother's decision whether she wants to have it or not, the right to life is inviolable and if the pregnancy puts life at risk the woman must take into account the opinion of her, the abortion in those three cases I agree as long as she is not forced to abort by her partner that is with the consent of her, and if she wants to abort or have it low those risks is decicion of her because the life of that woman is in danger or not feel good knowing that she will have an unwanted child and the worst for a violation, because by product of that violation not only would have a son but also be emotionally bad and physically
ResponderEliminarDear friend, I agree with your opinion because the woman is somewhere in the three circumstances that the law allows for an abortion and what she wants to do for you to allow yourself.
EliminarAt the point where you talk about not being forced by your partner I think that as women we should campaign to raise awareness about people about the legalization of abortion in order to achieve that under these conditions women have a greater freedom to decide on Your motherhood
Dear fellow, in your opinion I agree and what you say is correct.
EliminarAbortion is a decision of the woman that must be respected if it is under the causes that the law dictates.
She is the only one who can choose over her own body without being forced by her partner or other people, since she will be the only one to assume this responsibility of putting her own life at risk, not to be affected psychologically if it is the cause of a violation and finally, know how to offer the necessary pascience and affection to a person with malformations.
Dear friend, I agree that in these conditions she can abort because it is unfair that a rape is forced to have an unwanted child.
Eliminaralso when she is forced to have a child and this puts her life at risk, only she decides whether she wants to have it or not, even when the child brings malformations, it is she who decides.
Dear friend, I agree with you with the idea that the decision of abortion is properly from the mother. Well, if there is something that I have had agreement with the court, is that this process is aimed at the growth of sexual and reproductive rights of women.
EliminarI agree with you, since each of the women has the priority of saving her life if she is at risk during pregnancy and if it is a violation, the mother will not normally want the baby and most of the women usually want to have an abortion since it is the product of a violation and the mother can have sequels that could affect the child later if he decides to have it.
EliminarIn this regard, my point of view is in favor of abortion because of the means that abortion is approved. One of these causes of voluntary termination of pregnancy every woman has the right to decide on her own body and this is a fact traumatic for women, the law creates the opinion but does not force any woman to opt for the voluntary interruption of pregnancy, which ratifies the rights to autonomy and productive self-determination.
ResponderEliminarEste comentario ha sido eliminado por el autor.
ResponderEliminarIn my opinion, what the court decided is a very appropriate measure in the area of sexual and reproductive rights, within the framework of global legalization and for the life of pregnant women. These three measures in question, allows the pregnant woman to decide freely on her body and make decisions that allow her to develop a quiet life.
ResponderEliminarEste comentario ha sido eliminado por el autor.
EliminarDear friend, I agree with what the court decided, since women could not decide on their body, it was a crime to abort.
EliminarNow these three measures help the woman to decide on her body and that is very good.
I agree with the abortion, firstly because it puts the life of the woman at risk and life is an inviolable right and I believe that women have the right to want if they still want to risk their lives, if the mother is in danger and not She wants the baby to be born and can decide not to do it because it is a difficult decision because being in the woman's place is not easy because it is painful to lose a child.
ResponderEliminarand if it is the product of a rape and she does not want it, as a woman she has her reasons and more, even if a woman can have psychological problems and if she does not want that girl for the fact of being a rape.
Hello friend, I agree with your opinion, there is something clear and the right to life is inviolable, on the one hand the baby and on the other side the mother.
EliminarIt is respectable the desicion of the woman at the time of abortion, due to these circumstances is uncomfortable to bring a child to the world as a result of a violation, On the other hand it would not be easy to bring a child with malformations since this creates difficult situations for him and his family, or in case this life is in danger of this woman, she is in all her right to choose her own life.
EliminarDear friend, I agree with you as the three measures in question allow the woman to decide about her life, her body and freedom.
Because it is true no one knows what the person who is living that feels, you do not have to judge it but try to understand it and more in a violation that the fact that it happened could make you feel bad and end up with psychological problems.

EliminarI agree with you because women have the right to protect themselves and choose to give life to the baby either because of a rape or because of a malformation, since the mother is the only one who has the right to take the child's life.
EliminarThe mother in the gestation period can know if the baby is found with some malformation and choose whether to live or take his life, you can also know if the mother's life is in danger and she can choose who to save if her life or that of your baby.
dear friend I agree because women have to decide on them and it is very good to let them abort when any of these problems

EliminarI agree with two of the three reasons why the Constitutional Court of Colombia approves abortion, I disagree that it was approved when it is the product of a rape or incest since in this particular case the life of the person is about to be born or nasciturus and there are ways from the legal, ethical and moral point of view to solve this point. I believe that this is not a sufficient reason to get rid of a human life.
ResponderEliminarI think that once the baby is born, it can be given for adoption or the Colombian Family Welfare Institute can take charge of it to guarantee the rights of both the mother and the child.
Dear Law students,
ResponderEliminarI want to congratulate you for all your discussions and comments, which are very reflective and critical. And in order to continue developing those skills as well as some language skills such as drafting, grammar, punctuation, etc., please click on the following link for your second discussion writing task: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sMlGQ-_NWLt2kzalXzBq990exoCt09WvwJmNBI5eDVk/edit?usp=sharing
I agree with Abortion is a method for women to lose or not have a child. I think we should protect women who want to have an abortion because the law allows or approves it. Abortion or voluntary termination of pregnancy (IVE) is a fundamental right that consists of a procedure to consciously end a pregnancy in progress.
ResponderEliminarColombia opened the door to the IVE, allowing the procedure to be carried out in one of these three circumstances.
We must bear in mind that the interruption of pregnancy fits one of these cases; But still you want to continue with that, you can also do it.
The decision is yours and no one can force you to do something you do not want with your body.
In summary, it is very important to take into account the opinion of women to understand their position and which is better for their health.
Dear Classmate, you are right in the fact that rape and incest is a terrible crime in the woman, but an innocent being should not pay the consequences of an act that he did not induce with the sacrifice of his life.
ResponderEliminarAs there are cases of mothers who have suffered psychological problems which I think are often caused by the indifference and pressure of society, there are those where they have consciously determined that the being that they carry in their womb does not have Guilt and deserve to live and be happy.
I think it is more difficult for a mother to think that I end up with the life of a child, that the fact of learning to accept that unfortunate circumstance of life should not relapse with the capital punishment of a helpless being who did not decide how to get to this world.
Euthanasia in Colombia: “a paper law”
ResponderEliminarIn Colombia, since 1997 there has been an intense struggle for the right to die with dignity. Despite the Constitutional Court, since then, euthanasia, doctors have reacted to ethical and moral issues. The only countries that allow it, besides Colombia, are Belgium, Luxemburg and the Netherlands.
In view of what the Constitutional Court of Colombia has said about euthanasia, I agree that, beyond ethical and religious issues, a patient with a terminal illness that causes severe suffering should be able to decide on the termination of his life covered by the legal procedures such as free consent expressed by the patient.
On the other hand, I believe that the right to life must be protected at all costs and that is an undeniable question from the religious, ethical and moral point of view, since we have been taught that only God can take life, but it must be a worthy life.
To conclude, I recommend to the Constitutional Court and the Congress of the Republic that the procedure to apply euthanasia be regulated and that there will be clarity in the medical community so that the constitutional right to die with dignity be guaranteed.
Euthanasia in Colombia: A Great Success
ResponderEliminarEuthanasia is an alternative for people with terminal illnesses and who lead a painful life. It is about ending the person's life in an assisted way and thus ending their suffering. Colombia is the fourth country in the world to legalize it after Belgium, Luxembourg and Holland. Regarding this issue there are many ideas found, both for and against, which we will see later.
I believe that euthanasia is a very good option for people who do not want to continue living an incomplete and suffering life, since the right to a dignified life is more important than the right to a simple subsistence. In a decent life the person can develop their abilities and carry out all the activities that allow them to feel fulfilled.
In opposition to this are religious beliefs strongly rooted in our Colombian culture, mainly the Catholic Church, which is radically opposed to any idea that goes against life, even when it is a life of pain.
Finally, I believe that the legalization of euthanasia is a great step forward for Colombia and I recommend that other countries promote the legalization of this alternative.

ResponderEliminarEUTHANASIA IN COLOMBIA
ResponderEliminarColombia is one of the first countries in Latin America to legally allow euthanasia to give a dignified death to those people with terminal illnesses. Euthanasia is a medical procedure that consists of the acceleration of death in terminal patients through medications endorsed by the Ministry of Health in Colombia.
From my point of view, euthanasia is a very important and controversial issue, since it speaks of the right to life and this is the result of dying with dignity, which includes taking disposition of it and more if it is in a state of precarious health and not being allowed to give euthanasia can be called torture by continuing to live in pain.
On the other hand, I think that those people who make this radical decision should be encouraged by their family and their doctor to take other alternatives to live before euthanasia.
To conclude, I recommend that the patient be given priority, a special accompaniment and determine under medical, psychological and psychiatric parameters that this decision is not for lack of support and love of their family members but for exhaustion and pain due to their illness.
ear friend, I agree with you about euthanasia, but I think that when a person makes the decision to apply euthanasia, he wants to die with dignity, that his illness is degenerative or irreversible.
EliminarIn my opinion I think that the patient asks for euthanasia not because of lack of love or the support of their family members but because their illness is very painful, and I think that it is necessary to put in the place of the family, since it is not easy for anyone to see to a loved one with a disease that there is no way to help them.
Dear friend Carolina, I agree with your arguments, especially that the right to life must be exercised with dignity, including death. I think that the right to a decent life also includes a dignified death, therefore, your argument is very correct when it comes to agreeing with euthanasia, because, after a decent life, we deserve a dignified death even through of euthanasia.
EliminarTHE LEGALIZATION OF EUTHANASIA IN COLOMBIA
ResponderEliminarColombia in 2015 positioned itself as the only country in Latin America to legalize euthanasia in adults, now for this year 2018 in March it ranked as the third country that regulates this practice for minors. Euthanasia is practiced so that a person who is suffering from a terminal illness and decides they do not want to continue suffering can with the help of a third party end their life.
According to Dr. Carmenza Ochoa euthanasia: "it is a matter of compassion if an adult is suffering and has requested euthanasia should be practiced" in front of this postulation of Dr. I am in favor because it is a way for the person who is suffering from a disease of these do not have to suffer with all the treatments that must be submitted.
On the contrary, the Catholic Church strongly opposes euthanasia because according to religion they must be subjected to palliative care which will prolong their suffering further, torturing them.
To conclude, I recommend that doctors receive more guidance on this practice so that they act with greater confidence and certainty.

ResponderEliminarEuthanasia in Colombia: right or violation.
ResponderEliminarA subject of great debate has been lately the appearance of euthanasia, which apparently is a new idea, but since the era of the platon republic was said: "will be left to die to those who are not healthy body." With the passage of time the idea of euthanasia has taken more force, provoking a division, between those who defend it at the head of the Catholic Church and the sympathizers among whom we can find patients with terminal illnesses found in euthanasia. the best way to die with dignity.
In my opinion and based on their own stories, as is the case of Mr. José Ovidio González Correa, who asked to be euthanized; since he suffered from a terminal illness that prevented him from living with dignity. As is the case of several people who pursue the same goal.
On the other hand, the church argues that the right to life is inviolable and that doctors can not go against their ethics. On the contrary, they must provide palliative care to patients.
Finally, it would be important to review with the different points of view (congress, doctors, church) and reach an agreement where human dignity prevails.
my friend, let me tell you that I am not in agreement with your sight because it does not seem to me that a person has the right to decide for the life of another person, that automobile to make their own decisions and if the person is in a coma, or unconscious nobody could decide for the respect his opinion but my point of view is that nobody can decide on another.
EliminarEuthanasia in Colombia should not be approved because it is a violation of a fundamental right that is contained in Article 11 of the Political Constitution of Colombia and is a norm of rules and is by whom we are governed.
Dear partner, I agree with you as we must respect the designation of each person.
EliminarI find it interesting since it once imported to different points of view.
EUTHANASIA: TOOL OR DEMORALITY
ResponderEliminarColombia is the fourth country in the world to approve euthanasia.
Euthanasia appears in the Penal Code as homicide for mercy, and states that whoever kills another out of mercy to end an intense pain will have a lesser penalty, from six months to three years in prison.
One of its requirements is: basically that the patient has a terminal illness and is in continuous suffering.
Next, I will give some points in favor and against
From my point of view, euthanasia is an immoral practice, since GOD is the only creator of our lives and he is the only one who has the faculty also to remove it. John Paul II said: "Euthanasia is in direct opposition to the fifth commandment: 'Thou shalt not kill' (Exodus 20:13)"
from another point of view it could calm the physical pain of the person suffering from the terminal illness, but it will never be able to calm the emotional pain on the part of his family
.
To conclude for me euthanasia is an abuse part of health specialists to take the life of a person suffering terrible physical pain.
My recommendation is find out and see other points of view.
by:mabel pardo
Hello friend Mabel, I respect your point of view regarding euthanasia, it is true maybe it goes against religious rules.
EliminarBut I do not support you, as you have said it is the possibility of ending a pain, a suffering, now if it is the will of this person to end his life to end this suffering must be respectable, it is not easy to carry a life of suffering and torture.
Hello Mabel, I understand your opinion from the religious point of view and beliefs. But I must also say that not all people in the world or in the country have your own beliefs, so forbidding a solution to their painful life based on the beliefs of a single religion does not seem very fair to me. In addition to this, I consider that the families of terminally ill people suffer more from their sick relative than at the moment they know that they finally rested from their suffering.
EliminarDear friend, your opinion is very true, but God did not bring us to suffer, we must be autonomous and decide on our body and our life, if it is a terminal illness I think euthanasia would be good, of course this is the last option , without harming anyone.
EliminarEuthanasia in Colombia
ResponderEliminarMedical euthanasia has long been a gray area in Colombia, even after decriminalization in 1997. Colombia's constitutional court actually ruled in favor of euthanasia in 1997. But doctors were reluctant to implement the ruling because a Separate law punished the mercy murders with six months to three years in prison.
I am in favor of euthanasia because euthanasia is different from medically assisted suicide, which is legal in many places. In assisted death, a doctor prescribes end-of-life medications, usually pills, but the patient is the one who takes them. Now adults with terminal illnesses can ask a doctor to end their lives for them.
But in the case of unconscious patients, I am not in favor because the relatives can not decide to apply euthanasia. Patients are not aware of deciding euthanasia.
In conclusion, euthanasia is an act that seeks to cause the death of a sick person that entails serious family, social, medical, ethical and political consequences. its decriminalization will modify at its root the relationship between generations and
medical professionals. Euthanasia accelerates the death of a terminal patient of some incurable condition, to end pain and suffering.
Dear partner, I agree with you that family members should not decide for patients who are unconscious due to their illness and that it is a decision of the patient should not decide for them.
EliminarBut in my opinion I think that euthanasia does not seek to cause the death of a sick person that rains grave family, social, medical, ethnic and political consequences, but euthanasia looks for a person who dies with dignity and whose disease is degenerative or irreversible. medical results, medical results, medical results, medical results, medical results, family practices.
Hello friend Jerson, I agree with your opinion regarding euthanasia, it is a good idea that it is the sick person who decides whether to continue or not with this disease, and not leave it to the family, since we do not know the will of the person to whom the procedure will be applied.
EliminarEuthanasia is the decision of a patient who suffers from a terminal illness. Euthanasia is administering a fatal dose by a third party and the latter may be the situation that generates nonconformity and different points of opinion in our society, Colombia has constitutionally welcomed this decision by means of a ruling which is controversial In a struggle of ethical and religious opinions to which I can say.
ResponderEliminarI think that a person does not deserve to live chained to excruciating pain and place chains to be able to access the right to a dignified death, this controversy should not be a decision of a footstool must be the decision of the one who suffers and lives this tragedy.
On the other hand, it may be that this procedure goes against our natural sense of living and the religious concepts instilled, as well as the ethics that medicine instills to its physicians within its professional principles to protect life.
So I recommend that euthanasia in our state should provide guarantees to patients and their families, to access this procedure as a fundamental right and to be established in the public health of every government.
Comrade, I agree with you that every person has the right to a dignified death.
EliminarIf your illness is declared terminal, you have every right to claim euthanasia and that is the one that suffers.
My friend, I agree with your position, in the sense that the decision of whether to perform euthanasia should fall on the person who is suffering directly from the pain and suffering of a terminal illness. No one who has not gone through a similar situation has enough moral authority to decide what is and what is not right to do.
EliminarTHE EUTHANASIA IN COLOMBIA
ResponderEliminarEuthanasia is when people want to die or lose a serious or advanced disease in which they are unsure of going forward.
Euthanasia has been involved in several criticisms, therefore, it has found several positive aspects as negative aspects that I will show below:
Euthanasia occurs with the approval of the patient towards the procedure requesting a dignified death and where the specialized doctor makes known the procedure to be followed; so the doctor gives priority to the patient knowing and respecting his decision.
On the contrary, there are several people against euthanasia and also several organizations such as religions that do not accept that people are euthanized and that they are taken as if it were a violation of the right to life and say that it goes against The rules of God.
In conclusion, I recommend that religions and organizations prioritize and see how patients use euthanasia to alleviate the pain of patients such as family members.
Dear friend Hellen, I disagree with you, especially because euthanasia is a legal issue and a personal decision, detached from the willing and thinking of religious organizations, activists that defend life, who from the legal point of view can not influence the patient's decision. I think that euthanasia is the result of dignifying life.
EliminarEuthanasia in Colombia
ResponderEliminarColombia was the fourth nation in the world to allow euthanasia in the constitutional court in Colombia failure in 1997 has favored euthanasia since it is a method in a dignified manner, it is very different from medically assisted suicide. Already in many countries of the world is fully regulated (Luxembourg, Switzerland, United States).
The church is in disagreement because it goes against the dogmas and its principles, there are different points of view some in favor others against.
I am in favor of euthanasia because those who are suffering in an intolerable way and it is not possible to alleviate it can not be forced to continue living with reference to a family member who suffered from a terminal illness.
On the other hand, the medical personnel in their principles is the life of their patients they do not have the right to decide on the life of another person. The church asks that it not be approved because nobody decides about the life of another.
In conclusion, I recommend that the ministry of health take its pertinent measures so that this problem can be resolved between the church and the law so that people can die with dignity.

ResponderEliminarEuthanasia in Colombia.
ResponderEliminarOn April 20, 2015, euthanasia and the right to die with dignity were finally regulated in the country, after the Constitutional Court, through sentence T-970 of 2014, ordered the Ministry of Health. This debate had been considered by the Court since 1997, at that time by Judge Carlos Gaviria.
In my opinion, euthanasia was defined in the document as a fundamental right, the right to death worthy of every human being, under degenerative conditions or irreversible diseases.
But when the euthanasia norm is effective, health professionals preferably do not perform the procedure in the legal scope of the norm in Colombia and professional ethics, so patients requesting euthanasia must perform a procedure extensive legal.
Finally, it must be taken into account that when a patient requests euthanasia it is because their disease has no possible cure or is degenerative and can not lead a dignified life. As members of the family we must respect the last will or decision of the person who asks to die with dignity and not suffer more for a disease that affects not only him, but his family.
My friend, I like his way of arguing and I agree with his opinion on abortion in cases of
Eliminarviolation. I believe that allowing it is a danger to the life and health of the mother. and in many of the cases of abortion they are clandestine, I only agree with their opinion.
friend, I totally agree with you, this is a very difficult decision, but it is an end in the future, the torture of continuing to live with a disease that has been processed, the only thing that is to advance, without achieving an improvement on the contrary, degenerating, the family is a fundamental part of every human being and it is there when we have rather supported by them and that the eutonasia of peace in the patient and his family, of which it is about dying.
EliminarEuthanasia in Colombia
ResponderEliminarAccording to the ruling of the Constitutional Court C-239/97, In the interests of legal security, the Court will urge the Congress to regulate the issue of human rights in the shortest possible time, and in accordance with the constitutional principles and considerations of humanity. the dignified death. Through this, the practice of homicide for mercy has been studied to those people with terminal illnesses in order to obtain a dignified death and to end the suffering they incur.
In my opinion I agree with the approval of the practice of euthanasia, since it is a self-sufficient decision and a way to end these terminal illnesses and to end the suffering that is experienced because of them.
As a factor against this procedure, we have religious norms where we are told that the only one with the authority to take our lives is God and therefore we must wait for the moment when it is he who takes our life.
To conclude, I would recommend the church to analyze this procedure as a way to obtain a dignified death and put an end to the suffering that these people go through.
