How can you access #voluntaryassisteddying if you don’t know it exists? Or if you know about VAD but can’t find someone to help? New paper explores #healthliteracy challenges for #assisteddying: https://t.co/zYGGZ6bOKy. @JeanneretRuthie @WillmottLindy @HealthLawQUT #VAD

Phil Newby, is a father of two who suffers from the degenerative condition motor neurone disease. He went to the High Court to challenge the UK’s current ban on #AssistedDying, asking- why anyone should face a "bleak future where no choice exists for a dignified death."

Congratulations to @DWDnsw @gogentle_aus for the massive effort for the people of NSW to achieve a compassionate choice at the end of life. VAD Bill just passed upper house 23:15. Territories the last place where people left to suffer. #saparli ##auspol @DWDVic @aus_politics

[VADSA @vadsaorg]

Morrison has just said NT and ACT will not have VAD while he is PM. ‘Territories are different’. Really. People in Territories don’t suffer apparently. @gogentle_aus @DWDVic @DWDnsw @aus_politics

[VADSA @vadsaorg]

Congratulations Queensland! And congrats Tanya!

[VALE - Voluntary Assisted Life Ending (Tanya) @ValeEnding]

Qld Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill passes! 60 YES AND 29 NO. There are no words to describe this feeling. None.

[Sally McManus @sallymcmanus]

@Peter_Fitz @nctriggs No one would ever want to be waiting for Morrison to do something urgent to save you

[VADSA @vadsaorg]

If the lie that SA #voluntaryassisteddying Act forces faith based hospitals to provide services against their will is the basis for Jack Snelling’s reincarnation of Family First then it’s not a good start #saparli @gogentle_aus @DWDVic @DWDnsw @DWDnsw

[Peter FitzSimons @Peter_Fitz]

I am a little shocked. This is not like @mirandadevine, in her column today, but she is sincere:
"The fact is, Morrison and Health Minister Greg Hunt, in their diffidence, have comprehensively stuffed the vaccine procurement process."

[VADSA @vadsaorg]

SA just passed #voluntaryassisteddying Bill. 4th state. Half our population now live in a state with compassion and choice at the end of life. Next Queensland and NSW. @saparli @DWDVic @gogentle_aus @DWDQld @DWDnsw @ValeEnding @PallCareSA

Congratulations @NatCookMP for speaking up for compassion and real choice for people suffering at the end of life #saparli

[VADSA @vadsaorg]

#voluntaryassisteddying Opponents always say you cannot put pressure on a person to request VAD. But they’re happy to put pressure on a person NOT to request VAD by insisting on an institutional conscientious objections #saparli @ValeEnding @DWDQld @DWDnsw l@gogentle_aus
