Asking someone to relate a situation e.g. euthanasia, to a person very close to them is a method often used by people to argue a point.
However, if we are going to judge a situation in an objective way, then it is best to look at it from a neutral view. I would be way too entrenched in subjective feelings if it was my mother, so in all honesty I don't know what I'd do. Most likely...yes I would help her, if that is what she asked me to do and she was is terrible pain. The thought of letting her keep on living with so much pain is worse to me, no matter how sickening the thought of killing her is.
Even if I said I wouldn't do it. It wouldn't prove your point because that is an extremely bias situation in which I would have many factors, namely my love for my mother, holding me back from doing what may be the right thing.
