Thank you.
Thank you, doctors, for your great expertise.
It has been suggested that some of us who were raising questions about being ready want to relitigate MAID. I'm not one of them. I've had some very close friends choose MAID so they could have an end of life that they had control over with their families. These were very profound moments. I respect that. I'm trying to see how.... I deal with families, with people who have deep mental illness and depression. How can I assure them that this process is done with all the care necessary?
Dr. Gamache, you said that those who would be eligible would have been involved in the medical community for decades. If someone comes in with deep and significant suffering, deep depression, perhaps addiction and suicidal ideation, but hasn't been involved for decades, would they still be eligible?
