“Opponents of Death-with-Dignity (DWD) laws use several falsehoods in their attempts to prevent legislation from passing. We believe policy decisions affecting people with terminal illness should be made based on evidence and the actual content of the legislation.”
“New legislation and court judgments are further expanding access to MAID, some bringing new and different twists.”
With the assistance of the World Federation of Right to Die Societies and Exit International, I surveyed voluntary assisted dying (VAD) advocates and supporters around the world to inject some much-needed data and objectivity into the VAD debate.
“We reached the goal for patients like me, who aren’t terminal but degenerative, to win this battle, a battle that opens the doors for the other patients who come after me.”
“We have a long way to go to educate the public about choices in dying, about defining ‘life’, and about making the end less agonizing for patients and their families.”
A friend’s .357 “solution” reinforced his decision to learn from right-to-die groups.
“Medical aid in dying should not be proscribed by society’s laws or condemned by its mores.”
People with disabilities speak up for MAiD; some “rights” groups would deny them choice.
Passing a MAiD law is hard enough. Then try to implement it.
With all the ways to improve MAiD, should RTD advocates be concerned about healthy seniors who say, “I’ve lived long enough?”
