from Dementia Dialogue · host dementiadialogue
We continue our series on Dying and Dementia, with Ron Posno. Ron lives with Alzheimer’s Disease and Vascular dementia. He shares his experience of living with dementia, why he thinks having conversations about our own death is important and what this means for him as someone living with dementia. Ron has been an advocate of access to Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) for people living with dementia. We talk about what a highly personal decision this is and why, for Ron, his wish is to access MAID when his disease progresses, if it is available to him.
