Is it not currently being offered only by the request of the person, and considered only after the person has exhausted all other treatment? That was my understanding of the eligibility requirements from the government website. I’m actually asking, I felt like the news were very sentionalised so I looked it up. Although, yes, there has been some rogue people recommending it instead of the (little) help available.

I do wish there would be expanded treatment options for all types of disability and illnesses, the healthcare system is fucked and not much is being done to actually help. Personally, I don’t feel like the sentionalised version of MAiD would actually do much to help that either because it would just put more stress on another part of healthcare. There needs to be more for every sector.
