The Simple TRUTH About Medical Aid in Dying Laws: You Have Agency around Dying, Death, and Grief

Send us Fan MailThis video discusses the death with dignity or medical aid in dying laws that have been in place for 30 years in the United States, emphasising that there have been no cases of coercion or abuse during this time. The speaker explains that safeguards are effective and that, if anything, families have tried to persuade loved ones not to use the law, but ultimately respected their wishes. In this conversation, we speak with Mandi Zucker, who shares her personal experiences with loss and her reflections on what it means to face death, particularly in relation to her family and the legacy she hopes to leave behind.Mandi has been working to change the law in New York State to allow people to choose medical aid in dying, and appeals to everyone to let the governor know you support her signing this into law by the end of the year.End of Life Choices New YorkSupport the showWe very much want to hear your thoughts.
