Default Re: Euthanasia - your thoughts?

My father died in the UK a few years ago, he made the decision relatively early to refuse treatment and signed all the DNR forms. His wishes were respected (not that anyone had any choice in the UK) and they just administered pain killers until he passed.

I don't know what the law is here, I've heard of doctors and families overriding such decisions and forcing treatment, simply prolonging the pain and frustration.
