An Anglican priest shares his experiences of meeting with two individuals who decided to end their own lives due to terminal illnesses and medical challenges. He discusses the importance of allowing individuals to make their own decisions regarding assisted dying.
I’ve had the responsibility and privilege to meet with two people who decided to end their own lives. One, a middle-aged man with terminal cancer, had been given perhaps another month to live, and the pain and suffering were just becoming too much for him. The other, an elderly woman, had numerous medical challenges , was again close to death, and while not in too much pain wanted to die, in her words, “surrounded by my family, those I love, and in my own time.
Not alone and frightened and in the middle of the night.” I was allowed to meet with these people because I’m an Anglican priest. They were allowed to make the decision because they live in Canada, where Medical Assistance in Dying (Maid) was introduced in 2016
