Last December, we witnessed a friend’s peaceful death under Vermont’s Patient Choice at End of Life law (Act 39). What we saw was not despair or hopelessness — it was dignity, gratitude and a profound expression of self-determination. That experience convinced us that Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD) is a compassionate and essential option for the terminally ill in New Hampshire. By sharing Susan’s story, we hope to inspire support for this vital change in our own state.
