last year, a close relative of mine was dying of cancer (untreatable) and they opted for MAID. there was a lot that went into the approval process, but the procedure itself was quick and peaceful. i was there (along with other family members), so i got to see it first hand. the person got control over the end of their life after the disease tried to take that away, and it spared them from possible months of suffering. i hope the MAID option is still available when my time comes.

'One should die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly'. My mother received MAID 4 days ago. She found out she had Stage 4 lung cancer (very advanced) and metastase everywhere one month and a half ago. She lost all her autonomy in the blink of an eye. She didn't want to wait to be in pain and with no chance to get better, she choose this option. She could not deal with the fact that she had to rely on others for all her needs. We respected and welcomed her decision. She left so peacefully. I am so happy for her she was eligible for MAID. RIP Mommy.

Rosina was my friend, and I saw her deteriorate over time, not having enough to eat and live with dignity. It's such a sad reality. The help she needed, including the meds and assistance due to disability weren't available. It was a lot of loneliness, being made to feel useless and a burden when asking for help. It was tragic, to say the least. I was with her the last night of her life till 2am.
@micgooflander95 Жыл бұрын
I'm glad Rosina had the right not to be forced to continue to suffer. Just forcing people to live does not solve the problem of loneliness, lack of benefits, inadequate access to medical care, etc. All you're doing when you force someone to live against their will (i.e. prevent them from accessing effective, risk-free and painless suicide methods through some channel - whether that be the healthcare system or any other) is punish that individual for the way that they've been failed by society. That cannot be the right answer. That cannot be the humane answer. Ultimately, each individual should have the right to choose whether they want to live; not be forced to serve as political chess pieces.

Many simply want their lives to be better, for more home care, better medical care and more social interaction. The first gentleman may have misunderstood, many people would be concerned, others seeing how worn down he seemed. Forgetting to return smiles with others signals far too much isolation. With terminal or intolerable conditions, at least 3 persons should certify approval,- a panel of three with members allotted (shuffled) to each case randomly,- made up of a lawyer or judge, a senior physician and a layperson. Pain relief training must be improved or have a dedicated unit in all bigger hospitals. Medicines can make a great deal of difference. Therapies need to be reviewed. Many retraumatise patients and some are vicarious for the therapist. Teaching coping systems and shaping moving into an improved future are most often a better route for non-terminal patients. That govts find bumping people off whose lives could have been turned around is a sad indictment of our society.

May Allah swt rest her soul.

Human life is worth more than that and yet here we are deciding which option is more 'cost-effective'. Shame. The Western claims of 'progressiveness' and 'humanitarians' are being exposed day by day.

I worked as a registered nurse for 50 years, 16 of those in nursing homes. I know what I’m talking about. Some people become so tired of suffering that they would rather die and I support that fully. It’s better than having to commit suicide.

Option 1: living with mental illness Option 2: death Option 3: being at minimum properly cared for with dignity and omitting poverty and food scarcity and homelessness, or best case scenario, cured isn't an option. It's a wish, a dream, a fantasy. Making people wait for that, when it's not even in the works on any level, is cruel. The suffering is real, and it's now. Other countries have found incredibly appropriate ways to care for, house, feed, give dignity to those with disabilities so the answers are mostly available. It's government and greedy corporations choosing profits over people or wasting tax dollars or starving our Healthcare system of funding. Money is the God that is worshipped in all of North America over anything else. It is humanmade, and it is humankilling. To those corporations and government officials, my message is: just because you can, doesn't mean you should! Find your moral compass and do better. People before profits, always, as a bare minimum for living standards.

It infuriates me that there are doctors the world over who push families and patients into "pulling the plug" or getting euthanized - there are straight-up sociopaths in the medical industry. In Canada, there was a woman in her 30s who had MS who kept being pressured by doctors and nurses into MAID. In the US, my mother and I were blackmailed into signing a DNR for my father (which we never did) before they would restart his dialysis and other procedures to prolong his life - they initially brought us in for the express purpose of pulling his plug, and they were angered that we chose not to as my father wanted heroic measures taken to preserve his life.

Yes, don't judge. And keep in mind that there's a difference between situational depression and clinical depression. For instance, you have a breakup and you have some suicidal thoughts. Or a loved one passes away and you can't get a grip... these are situational. They can and do lead to suicide sometimes but usually a person can begin to cope and get better. Clinical depression is more medical. A disease/disorder. So even if it appears a person has everything and has a great life, they are still depressed! And people judge them for it!

A person with a medical condition shouldnt have to die cuz they are too poor to afford helping themselves. Canada has a lot of programs. But none are sufficiently funded. People with medical conditions literally struggle to not become homeless. The country is punishing the poor again. In my homecountry, u can get assisted death as well. I too know people who left our world this way. But it is stricter than Canada. Usually only when u are in deep pain the government will assist you. We luckily almost erased poverty in my country, so nobody asks for assisted death simply cuz they are too poor. That isnt the case in canada unfortunately. Canada somehow created an eat-or-get-eaten mentality like the US in the past 2 decades. There is a woman from toronto that was working full time, got intentionally coughed at during the pandemic, and now she has longcovid that makes it impossible for her to work fulltime to pay her bills. She is askin the government now to help her die. And she shouldnt have to just cuz the government keeps kicking the bucket to the less wealthy or more vulnerable folks. Most of these folks wanna live but poverty makes it hard. Nice day

It should not be easier to access MAID than a wheelchair. If we are going to make this legal, major reform is so necessary. I wish we lived in a world where people who are suffering could have access to a dignified death, but I just fear the risks that come along with legalizing this are far too high.

Aww, this makes me so sad - I have fibromyalgia and a number of other spinal issues and in pain every day, I wish I could have spoken to her and help to show her the way to carry on …..

Imagine what happens when this mixes with the profit incentive. It’s horrific.

I don’t want to be here. But I don’t want to let anyone down either. I just wish i could give my life force to someone who wants, and deserves it. I’m not making this for attention. I guess it’s just nice be honest somewhere.

Easier to make you go away then try to help you. This man just said most of his struggle is economic and fear related to that, after everything he just showed and told you. Sounds like he could be helped. They need to focus more on natural things like thc, psilocybin, mdma, etc. Making that available to people who need and want.

Remember when people said that Canada had the best medical system in the world.

Remember Michael Moore? He got more, people have gotten less. Who was pedaling what? The love of many growing cold.

I watched this documentary in tears...I myself have fibromyalgia and mental illness...the physical and mental pain is unbearable most days! I truly related to her feelings...now she is truly at rest....

She was euthanized but in such an undignified way. Why cannot we all come together and give a final send-off with dignity? It is a really messed up, tragic system.

Wish I could hug all these people. I respect and am glad for MAiD, but it really should be the last option for people who would live if it's possible they could improve their situation. It breaks my heart that people were so alone in their suffering that they decided to end it. Ugh. This world is a harsh, cruel place sometimes.

That hug could save, and perhaps that is the first hug in a lifetime, which is deeply heartbreaking.

Last option is a delusion. No one can reason that

You don't think they have tried to improve their situation? I think that's why they want to die. They have tried and tried but have not gotten better.

I respect these doctors who promote health, but there are cases that are beyond help. And those who deny it, need their eyes checked

The sad fact is that you cannot force people to spend time with other people and be there for them. Additionally, perceptions of social support are often skewed by the depression that many of these folks have.
