#AlanNicholas was hospitalised over fears he might be suicidal & begged his family to get him out of the hospital: within a month he was euthanised for β€œhearing loss,” even though he did not have access to his depression meds or his cochlear implant: https://apnews.com/article/covid-science-health-toronto-7c631558a457188d2bd2b5cfd360a867?ta

This entire thread could be about #Canada. Every time I write about this there are more articles about people being forced to choose to die. In a now-viral video, #AmirFarsoud cried as he said he didn't want to die, but he was losing his housing and knew he wouldn't survive homelessness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Up5k2Lx5SPI

Amir himself pushed back on people criticising his decision: https://twitter.com/ah_farsoud/status/1592673542533156864

Fortunately for Amir, a GoFundMe raised $60,000 in donations, meeting his immediate needs. But the same can't be said for other victims of MAiD.
