Your analysis and explanation of your opinion is excellent. When described that way it is hard to see how anyone could argue this stance. If we approve euthanasia because someone claims they are suffering, we have to include those who claim to suffer from mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. But, are they stable enough to make such a choice?
And if we exclude mental health suffering from the euthanasia option, that means were are defining and putting parameters on suffering, which as you said is subjective like a pain scale rating.

You bring up a good point. We often fail to consider the fact that other patients and their families are also affected by the deaths they witness or hear about during their admission. And unlike healthcare workers and first responders, many of them may have never had to face death before. Patients often ask me about the health of other patients, and they express concern about those patients’ wellbeing. Of course, I can offer no information on the subject, but only an assurance that we do everything we can to help. I imagine the stress of being at an inpatient hospice facility or ICU or ER would make that scenario even more difficult for patients and their families.
