In jurisdictions where mature minors can access MAID, it is actually quite rare. It's not a commonly requested procedure. The vast majority of cases—I would say all, but I cannot be certain—are really around track one, so the process of dying has already started and there is a terminal, life-ending disease process in place. In those cases, we know that kids feel pain too; kids suffer too. It is, as I say, viscerally heart-wrenching to see, but they suffer, and I think that would be a reasonable basis upon which a mature minor could request MAID.
