All right. Thank you.
That was not the principal focus of my preparation, but I think it is important to recognize, as Dr. Janz alluded to, the very subtle ways in which our messaging, even the delivery of our care at times, can nudge a person. The best example I can offer is one that was given to me by a colleague in human rights who was describing racism. He said it's like a hair that brushes your cheek. Other people can't see it, but you can feel it. You know exactly where it is. People with disabilities feel ableism in very much the same way in how we are regarded.
We have to remember that the original Carter decision described the risk of persons being vulnerable to inducement to seek, in a moment of weakness, a route to end their lives. I think those safeguards are there in large measure to ensure, or at least to help, people get past those weak moments when we are at rock bottom.
