My business serves the handicapped. You don't know what you're talking about.
Do you want your children to make the decision to "put you down" when they get tired of your elderly addle brained ways? With "dementia" comes a wide range of definitions. For instance, my mother in law is in the early stages of dementia. She absolutely could not live alone, and relies on her husband and my husband and me to help her. If she outlives her husband, caring for her will be solely our responsibility - and this could be tomorrow for all we know.
She is suffering from dementia, but she is also in otherwise good health. She is not distraught, but she often doesn't remember what day it is, or what time it is, or what she did this morning, or what the plan is for this afternoon.
Does she not deserve to be protected and taken care of in her old age?
As for children, children have amazing abilities to heal, to be resilient - often they amaze their loved ones and medical professionals with their recoveries after a grim prognosis.
I think that euthanasia can be a very slippery slope. And of course, people always use the worst case scenarios to "prove their point." But often bad law is made as a kneejerk reaction to worst case scenarios.

I agree - it IS a slippery slope and could easily be abused.
BUT, when I no longer know my name or yours and require diapers - give me the shot please. There are things worse than death; namely, suffering.
I'm all for voluntary euthanasia, as in this case. It doesn't matter why they want to die, it's their life, their decision. If one goes deaf and wants to be euthanized, let them be. That another person would be deaf and want to live has no bearing on the other person. Each person is an individual. To die with dignity should be an option here. One shouldn't have to blow their brains out, or o.d., or jump in front of train, etc.
