Do you also think terminally-ill patients who are not in pain should be given euthanasia on request? Yes
Do you also think patients who are in pain but not terminally-ill should be given euthanasia on request? Yes
Do you also think mentally ill patients who are otherwise healthy should be given euthanasia on request? Yes
How about those who are mentally-incapacitated and incapable of deciding? Should they be euthanized on the request of the family? Yes
Do you also think doctors should be required by law to perform euthanasia on their patients if their patients meet the legal criteria? No, but there should be a doctor on duty at every hospital 24 hrs/day who agrees to be that person.

All of those things eventually end up as part of the package when euthanasia is legalized. Fine.
