The result of many months of discussions the authorities of California formally allowed euthanasia. Now healers of the state have the right to prescribe the hopeless patients of a lethal dose of medication. The Governor of California Jerry brown signed a law allowing euthanasia, tells the Los Angeles Times. This decision was the result of months-long discussions at different levels of society. The most ardent opponent of the law was the Catholic Church. "I don't know what I would do if I was dying from prolonged and unbearable pain. But I am convinced that the choice to die or to live, which provides new law would serve as a comfort to me," he said at the signing of the law brown. New legislative measure will allow health workers to prescribe lethal doses of medicines for patients who have been diagnosed with an incurable disease that will cause death within 6 months. The new law will take effect 90 days after the technical approval by the legislature. Then California will be 5 staff, with the possibility of euthanasia - after Oregon, Washington, Montana and Vermont. Meanwhile, the brown decision was the reason for the outbreak of violent disputes between doctors and experts on ethics, religious organizations and members. Taking into account the opinion of opponents of the law, most of the inhabitants of California live in poverty and cannot afford qualified medical care, unlike the Governor. However, the theme of suffering from a serious illness brown perfectly familiar. He had undergone several oncological diseases and lost a few family members for the same reason.
