I have a chronic illness and my life can be pretty hard. I often think about MAID and I am within a category that can apply. Each day is so hard, the thought of 40 more years of this hard seems impossible. There is no cure, and not really any treatment. The only reason I don’t apply is the look in my husbands eyes, and how much he wants me to stay on this earth.

And I wonder if this makes me a good person- or a codependent person not listening to what my body tells me.

An it breaks my heart over and over.
