I'm obsessed with how good writers write the way they do. My colleague @esmedeprez is my latest obsession, taking us behind the scenes here of how she wrote her powerful, poignant story about helping her dad die.

(4/4) My husband got to design his own death and departure. I don't know how I kept it together during Ken’s final hours, but I knew I had to for him. That’s what love truly is…the power to persevere in the darkest of moments.

@ANANursingWorld @myamericannurse @DeathwDignity 13/14 Many of the states with laws have volunteer organizations to help patients and families navigate the process. Here are some: https://t.co/0DgUwK09KO, @EndofLifeWA, @MaineDwd, @PatientChoices in Vt, NJ Death with Dignity, https://t.co/anLehceIwh, etc.

@ANANursingWorld @myamericannurse @DeathwDignity @EndofLifeWA @MaineDwd @PatientChoices 14/14 We must understand and respect our patients' #EOL wishes and encourage conversations long before a terminal diagnosis. #PatientsFirst Thank you for following this far!

.@RonMariano @KarenSpilka
honor patient #autonomy and pass the End of Life Options Act. Terminally ill Bay Staters deserve the freedom to access medical #aidindying as an #EOL option.

@MollyGraziano @RonMariano @KarenSpilka @DeathwDignity @CompAndChoices “Still divided” sounds like lawmakers either haven’t done their homework or just aren’t interested in what the vast majority of voters want: an option to meet death on their own terms.

[Molly McMahon Graziano @MollyGraziano]

Divided over what?! Compassion vs. cruelty? Freedom vs. oppression? Mentally competent terminally ill adults deserve access to ALL end-of-life options, including Medical Aid in Dying. @RonMariano @KarenSpilka @DeathwDignity @CompAndChoices

"I want the same choices that adults in 10 states and Washington, D.C. – 20% of the U.S. population – have now. This is about my life and my death...Shouldn’t this also be my choice?" #DeathWithDignity #AidInDying #MyLifeMyDeath #Freedom

[Dignity in Dying @dignityindying]

“It’s a choice between two different ways of dying.”

@DrDuck2012 is fighting for an assisted dying law so that, should he ever need to use it, he could die surrounded by his loved ones, celebrating life.

@mdreporter This gentleman isn’t eligible for aid in dying without a terminal illness and six-month prognosis.

#MAiD & #PalliativeCare;

1. Understand suffering.
2. Assess potential for relief.
3. Ensure all the facts straight about the current & future illness.
4. Support until whatever end they choose.

Palliative care is not the ‘other option’. It is the partner.
