Ohioans with terminal illnesses have medical-aid-in-dying options in Vermont, Oregon
Thank you for running The Washington Post story about Vermonters opening their houses to the terminally ill traveling to use Vermont’s medical aid in dying (MAiD) law (“Homeowners open their houses to terminally ill people,” April 20). MAiD, in the ten states that allow it, affords competent adults suffering from a terminal illness the right to obtain a prescription they can use to end their lives peacefully on their own terms if they are within six months of death.

The Shapiro Brothers

Jeremy and Eric Shapiro are brothers. Both live and work in and around Shaker Heights, Ohio, not far from where they were born and raised. One is a doctor that treats the body, and the other works to heal the mind. They share the belief that the terminally ill should have access to medical aid in dying, making them part of a nationwide movement to rethink end-of-life care and what it should include.
