As someone who went through the process with my wife here in Canada, I do like the fact that medical professionals do have to take a look at the case and give suggestions on what can/needs to be looked at for assistance before MAID was allowed. It allows the medical field in general to have a final chance to save a life before it ends. It can connect people to different specialists who might be able to provide some form of care that will raise quality of life to a point the patient is comfortable with. My wife proved that she had tried everything conceivable and that the downtrend of her medical state was basically cruel and unusual (her Ehlors Danlos was getting to the point where she was losing her ability to swallow. Combined with MCAS allergies to A LOT of different stimuli, any movement forward would have been basically hell and the MAID assessors agreed).
