Answer 1

PAD is physical aid in dying. It is also known as assisted /uicide.

Oncology is the study of cancer. And a cancer specialist is referred to as an oncologist. Many times patients with severe medical conditions want to end their life. This is done with help of a physician. This is referred to as physician aid in /ying (PAD). Cancer has gained a lot of attention from PAD. The oncologist should before taking any step should consider that the patient has access to palliative options and it should be maintained that they have adequate counseling. PDA is becoming legal in the United States of America.
