Overview

Medically Assisted Dying: A Compassionate Alternative to Suicide is a manual for those who might be concerned with ending their own lives or have a relative or friend who is. It is written for patients who have been diagnosed as likely to die is the next six months or less and who do not want to continue living by such means as being tethered to life-sustaining equipment or intubated with tubes for ingesting food and drink. It allows individuals who have been diagnosed as terminally ill to die at a time and under conditions of their own choosing, such as surrounded by family and friends in a celebration of their lives rather than a painful period of suffering before death or an ugly suicide. It is also for individuals who want to plan for the ends of their lives so as to avoid the uncertainties that follow an unexpected life-threatening accident or the onset of dementia that makes them incompetent to manage the pain and distress of dying.
