EUTHANASIA & THE LAW

Nowadays the legal problem related to euthanasia is very widespread. It is also reaching all the nations all over the world because it is not just a legal problem but also a philosphical and dogmatic one.
I don't have a clear thought about this theme, but I can say that the life is sacred. I think also that doctors have to wait for some years before say that a person is died and could be unplugged from the machine that is keeping him/her alive merely biologically. But the really problem is to fix when a person is died. This is very hard to determined because there is not a specific period. It could vary form person to person and this is not let us to know. Many times it could also happen that the person is miraculously healed.
In Italy there is not a specific law about euthanasia. It is very chaotic. In fact is the Supreme Court that pronounce the sentence and only in few cases they let the person die. So the law should be reformed, but not fixing the exact case, but giving only a way to take in these cases because is not possible, in my opinion, to say when a person is died.
