Answerthequestions.How

would

you

cope

if

you

had

a

terminal

illness?

What

if

your

son

or

daughter

had

no

hope

of

ever

having

a

normal

life

due

to

a

life-threatening

condition?

Do

these

terminally

sick

people

have

the

right

to

die?

In

the

UK,

the

question

of

assisted

suicide

or

refusing

medical

treatment

is

extremely

divisive(有分歧的);

euthanasia

is

illegal

in

Britain,

which

is

the

act

of

helping

a

terminally-ill

person

to

kill

himself.

However,

a

13-year-old

English

girl

has

won

the

right

to

refuse

medical

treatment

this

week

after

a

hospital

dropped

a

legal

attempt

to

force

her

to

have

a

heart

transplant.

Hannah

Jones,

who

has

spent

eight

years

in

and

out

of

hospital

battling

heart

problems,

told

child

protection

officers

she

wanted

to

die

with

dignity

rather

than

face

the

operation

and

have

to

take

constant

medical

treatment

afterwards.

Despite

initial

efforts

by

her

local

health

authority

to

remove

Hannah

from

her

family

and

force

her

to

undergo

the

transplant,

legal

and

medical

experts

said

that

a

child

of

her

age

was

able

to

make

an

informed

decision

to

refuse

treatment.

Hannah‘s

decision

to

stop

treatment

and

spend

the

rest
