Letter to the editor : Language used in MAID article was insensitive

Notes: "I am writing to express my pain and dismay at some of the language used in your article 'Justice and the new assisted death' (September [2022], p. 1)". "David Lepofsky's description of medical assistance in dying as a 'social safety net that they wrap around your neck and pull until you stop breathing' and the sentence relating the end of the life of a woman who chose MAID -- 'a doctor killed her on Feb. 22' -- is to me insensitive language disrespectful and condemnatory of those who choose this path and the dedicated individuals working in this difficult field. I for one am grateful that my dear friend has this choice and I will be there to support her in her final journey".
