Letter to the Editor: RE: Dismayed by article about euthanasia

With Rheumatoid Arthritis, emphysema, osteoporosis, damaged retinas from RA drugs, lung cancer, one half collapsed lung, fluid on my lungs, and femur heads now showing signs of necrosis - surely I have earned the right to request the services of MAID

With Rheumatoid Arthritis, emphysema, osteoporosis, damaged retinas from RA drugs, lung cancer, one half collapsed lung, fluid on my lungs, and femur heads now showing signs of necrosis - surely I have earned the right to request the services of MAID when I feel the time has come.

This woman seems to feel that friends, and God, will be able to help me.  I disagree. I will be calling on MAID when I see fit (unless I find some street grade fentanyl first. AND NO, I am not suicidal). 

I am coping, for now, but will not end my days hooked up to machines.
