Pause. Reflect. Share.
We who work in palliative care are going through one of the biggest & most challenging changes that I am likely to experience in my career… and that is MAiD. I am not an “object” or  – I believe ultimately, in autonomy & am pro-choice. The challenge for me is being a witness to my colleagues who are conscientious objectors. The moral distress that is caused through the operationalizing of Bill C-14, to colleagues & patients families has required me to be very thoughtful & intentional about I can be of the best support. As we shift to MAiD for mature minors & mental health suffers, I ask for the Creator’s support in helping all of us minimize suffering for families, care providers & our society. Bless us!
