Madam Speaker, I listened intently and I want to thank the member for her speech. She brought up Dr. Don Low who was a microbiologist who died from brain-stem cancer. She mentioned his suffering. In fact, he was not in pain and he died in the arms of his wife eight days after making that video. However, he would have qualified because he was at end of life. He was not physically suffering, but he was suffering and when we asked what was the suffering, it was that he had lost control of bodily functions.
We heard last night at the justice committee that somebody who is in an adult diaper who is suffering dementia is seen as somebody in a pitiful state. My mother-in-law, a wonderful person, had dementia and was in a similar state but I did not see her as pitiful. Would the member see somebody who has dementia and is in an adult diaper as suffering and being in a pitiful state?
