Today I recognize the life of an amazing humanitarian, Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Among his many contributions to humanity was his support of end of life liberty. #compassion #hero #RIP. youtu.be/4g2BffV3Ga8
Thank you @TheDementiaGuru for recognizing the importance of thinking about our own end-of-life wishes, compassionate dying, and how to have those tough conversations as one of your key takeaways from the @ASAging conference.

Today, Maryland advocates are asking lawmakers to pass medical aid-in-dying legislation in their state to relieve suffering for people at the end of life at a virtual rally.

Far too many NYers have suffered needlessly waiting for the legislature to take up and pass this bill. This year, @CompAndChoices isn't taking no for an answer. Despite the challenges this new year has already posed, we're demanding action.

No New Yorker Should Have to Suffer Like Cathy Did. Why won't lawmakers give dying NYers #endoflife options and #StoptheSuffering? Scott & Cathy are from Rochester, @SenatorCooney @samraforsenate @VoteJenLunsford @DemondLMeeks @Byrnes4Assembly ... empirereportnewyork.com/no-n…
