I don’t think it’s rare either

I am so sorry your current disability makes you feel vulnerable. But honestly, this has nothing to do with the elderly, the frail or the disabled, only those who want to avail themselves of the choice, and in very strict conditions.

I know opinions vary on this, but I no longer feel safe. The assisted dying bill has passed. I'm a proponent of governments funding hospice care instead but it's too late now. I know quite a bit about hospices and if they had funding, it's extremely rare for anyone to have uncontrollable pain or suffering.

Being quite disabled at the moment makes me feel extremely vulnerable.
