Sem 3 A Reflection Paper on “Me Before You”

In my opinion, Lou and Will committed a premoral evil. When an action normally considered to be an objective moral wrong is done under objective mitigating circumstances that serve as proportionate reason for the action to happen or take place, there is premoral evil or wrong. In Lou’s case, the means in her act of allowing Will to die is murder. The end is to respect Will’s decision to end his life. Lou has committed an objective moral wrong freely and consciously. At first, Lou was against Will committing euthanasia but in the end, she has decided to go with Will’s decision. The objective mitigating circumstance in this case is the fact that the euthanasia was with Will’s consent. It was committed after a period of 6 months within which Will was given a chance by his parents to think about his decision. In Will’s case, the means in his act of committing euthanasia is suicide. The end is to end his suffering. Will has committed an objective moral wrong without full freedom or reflection in his action. The subjective mitigating circumstance in this case is Will’s fear and anxiety generated by deficiencies in life. Because of his physical disability, deciding for a fuller experience of being is difficult. I think Will’s decision of ending his life is greatly influenced by his anxiety which comes from the fact that he cannot do anymore all of the things that he used to do.
