I see that Canada has MAID in place for its citizens only.
I see that MAID in the US is legal only at the state level (10 states and Washington DC).
The big question is as to why the US Congress has not adopted federal legislation on this matter especially since MAID has been legal and successful at the state level for many years.
Hopefully, your voice and your personal story will be heard and help the cause to make change.
My mom died by the VSED option (Voluntarily Stopping Eating and Drinking) option. I was with her 24/7 . Watching her body slowly shut down was sad, and painful. MAID was not an option!
I agree, love the start to the speech :)
Excellent start on your speech! Hope your surgeon/team get back to you after such a clustercluck! Big hugs
Good start on your speech about MAID for DC.
