Wow that lady is a shark!

The depressed might be making the best choice by committing suicide?

She totally didn't notice that the "doctor shopping" would be done by the people caring for people with disabilities. And she missed it AGAIN with the "infantilizing" comment. She had no insight into the disability perspective at all. Your answer hit a home run.

OMG, Oregon HMOs will pay for assisted suicide but not for treatment???!!!!

It's quite a skill. I'm serious. You should pursue it more.

Maybe you can talk CIL into developing a podcast or youtube issues series.

It is my choice. I will choose my time and place. The DU is my witness.

So I won't give any reasons for KamaAina (or my) position here. But, respectfully, I hope you listen to the radio show for reasons why the disabled community has been dissenting on this issue.

Thanks for giving the radio show a listen! I was proud of KamaAina, given how aggressive the host was!
