Is This Euthanasia? - I Don't Think So.

This is an important article for me because it describes pretty much how hospitals and hospices should work at the end of somebody's life.
My ambivalence towards euthanasia is well-documented on here but very few can surely object to the circumstances described here - life shortened at the end by heavy morphine doses to remove all discomfort.
Maybe I am wrong.
