Medical Assistance in Dying committee  No. The complaint with the college of physicians—and I guess you have to throw the nurses in there—was done just before.... It was in November 2021. We weren't in a hurry to do that, because we just thought that they wouldn't do that great a job of investigating their own. We w

They brought in a notary who filled out his will, and Alan made him the executer of the will, so we had trouble getting his records. We eventually got some medical rec

Medical Assistance in Dying committee  Yes, they say they're okay with it, even though they didn't take a statement from my brother or me, and they're aware that his application said that hearing loss was the reason for MAID.
