I believe that having access to palliative care would help my suffering. I'm not sure. I don't think it would make enough of a difference to me to make me not request MAID, but I think it would give me the ability to cope with my pain for longer. It would raise my quality of life so that I could live with the physical pain, the things I can't change. I believe that I should have the option to try, and to see if it would help me before I follow through with MAID.
