The Roe v Wade of Euthanasia

I have seen it written that the Terri Schiavo case is the Roe v Wade of euthanasia. I can see the similarities. I was just a little kid in 1973 when abortion was made legal in the United States. I am beginning to feel the frustration that the pro-life people must have been going through back then. They must have been just as puzzled about the views of the other side as I am today about those who favor death. Take away all of the political maneuvering on either side. Both issues, abortion and euthanasia, are about life and death. I am very comfortable about being on the side of life.
