My mother fought ALS for 5 years. She was a practicing Catholic and never thought of the idea of ending her life. Four of her last years were spent in the hospital and on “machines”.

Our family was with her every one of her days along her journey. We made sure that she had the best care by staying with her.

Medical Assistance in dying is suicide.
