Dr. Jack Kevorkian fought so hard for this, but his name is avoided. He would deserve some credit for his passionate mission.

This is an incredibly meaningful and valid bill which is long overdue for Ohio and the rest of the country who have yet to embrace it.

I really want this law to be passed in every state

Death With Dignity, come to Illinois. Hospice is a hellish, torturous experience. Please save us from the cruelty of hospice.

This should be legal in all states. If we don’t expect our pets to suffer, surely we shouldn’t expect our loved ones to suffer.

If and when I am in a position to have to make this decision, I hope to God I am in a place that has it, if not I will move. All states need to have this choice for people. It is not for everyone, I have seen people fight till their last breath but it would be nice to have the choice.

It needs to pass in every state, we shouldn't have to move to choose to die.

❤❤❤ RIP Brittany. Thank you also for peeling back the encumbering nonsense. 🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹💐💐💐

At one time I was against this but as time has passed I have changed my mind. Who am I to deny someone anyone their right to die with dignity! It's a personal choice between that person, their family and *God* . I have asked myself if I was terminal and towards the end that I was going to be in the most horrific pain would I want to be drugged up and hooked up on life support unable to live my life because others decided that my life was their right to prolong? My answer was *#No* . I hope that one day that choice becomes the right to every human being. May Brittany Rest In Peace. God Bless her and her family.

I live in the state of Oregon and when I first heard the story about Britney I wasn't so sure about it but in 2020 I got an illness that is treatable but not curable and now I understand why she did what she did

Thank you. God loves us so much 💜

I think this should be available in every state

Rest in peace 🙏 💫💛

It should be in all states

What a brave and courageous beautiful young woman to choose to end her journey with dignity and grace and return home safely in the loving arms of Jesus among the angels may she rest peacefully eternally may god continue to bless and be with her amazing family I think of a person is terminally ill they should be allowed to make this choice if they should want to do so these people are amazing souls who will forever be an inspiration to others and forever missed and loved for they will always live on through the wonderful memories they left with their families and friends and by the many other lives they have touched through their journey back home 🙏💕🙏💕🙏

Gob bless y'all..Brittany was a very beautiful lady..so proud she was able to make her time when she knew it appropriate.may she rest in the arms of Jesus I know that pain as I lost my son 3 yrs ago at age ,37.. just so devastating not ho be in my.sincere prayers..Tell your story..may God be with you

god bless. sending much much love and many many prayers. rest in heavenly peace. fly high. ❤️ 🙏🏻 🧎‍♂️ 🕊

In the Netherlands this is quite advanced compared to America, it seems. There is open debate when needed. It’s just reassuring there is a peaceful way out when the time is near. We didn’t use it, but it was there if needed.

This should be in every state.

To Brittney's family, I am so very sorry for your very painful and very heartbreaking loss. I hope that with the help,love and support from your family and friends that you can get through this very tough and painful time.

Truly this dignity in dying IS a topic that should be explored & made available to all. When terminal illness forbids any kind of 'quality of life' without curing or having to rely upon machines to even breathe... Wasting away...Then consideration should be given to the sound mind of an individual who wishes to have a Kavorkian assist. The man was demonized for giving people a dignified release of 'life' (an individual's choice to NOT depend on machines, drugs to 'exist' & pass away 'naturally')

It’s a moving video. I support death with dignity. I’ve seen loved ones suffer unnecessarily. I couldn’t do that to my mom or aunts. They’re the elders still here.

Thank you so much for sharing this .

I live n Oregon and I remember hearing her story up here.

When you get the death With Dignity Act passed in Ohio, please help us in Pennsylvania to get it passed as well.

This makes way more sense than me watching my mom die slowly

I support death with dignity

'' It's not our business to tell people how to die!! '' this sentence talks about compassion and tolerance.

My life; my choice

Even as a conservative voter, I would support this. Then again, JMO, but I've never been one to believe that even suicide was a selfish thing. Who are we, who is anyone to say when the level of suffering is NOT enough suffering for someone else? Those are the selfish ones. Humanely euthanized shouldn't just be for pets.

I absolutely support this, for anyone truly suffering, regardless of the source. If life is unbearable, they should have the right to choose this path, to avoid a prolongation of suffering and to avoid sinister forms of suicide which happens at alarming rates. There is peace in anyone involved in this process, it is one of the nicest ways to go. As much as we want to keep people we love alive, this can also means they will stop suffering and get their wish granted; that's the part the love ones can focus on, making it a good memorable departure.

When our beloved pets get sick we can choose to end their suffering. This should be legal in every state! 8:23

It's not ok to let an animal suffer but it's humane to let a human suffer? I totally agree that you have the right to decide how and when you would like to die! Every state should have this law!❤

I honestly don't understand those people who are against "allowing the people to decide for themselves"? Why aren't they satisfied with they're own choices for themselves?

I have stage 4 lung cancer i already had chemo and radiation now i getting immune therapy! I told my family i will try it for a year. Then i will consider Death with Dignity i am 77 yrs old!

My husband just passed this way, June 29.

I understand what people say regarding religion and suicide. However how is it humane to end a pets suffering and not a person ? If all medical options are exhausted? It’s certainly not the easy way out . I don’t think I have the right to tell someone to stay on and suffer . It’s one of those things you can’t speak on until you’re in the situation. I feel like the government picks and chooses when to apply biblical principles. Sad

This should be world wide that people have their own choice. Sad that those before this were listed as murderers. Sad that governments must have a say. It should be any age that can choose if they are terminal.

I can’t imagine getting a terminal diagnosis. Maintaining control of your life would be an important part of coping i would imagine. My concern is I wonder if this medication to terminate a life would end up in the wrong hands. I hope that the distribution of something so powerful would be heavily ans carefully monitored.

Wow ! I cry . Respect !

It needs here in OHIO

I so agree with this bill. Should be country wide n really world wide.

Where in Ohio is death with dignity?

Fly free Brittany💗

🥺

RIP

So sorry for her passing and anyone with a terminal illness I can't imagine but let's speak facts this is suicide as well and I would never do this cause I know that God didn't take me I took myself.No matter how much pain I was in I just couldn't do this only cause I just wouldn't know if God would expect me in heaven.

This is sooo disturbing

I hope i born here to have a chance to die soon. Iam tired of place where I live now. May be my savings in 5 years are not enough to pay for this service. I want to leave because I hope to have a better life in the next life

death with dignity is not the end of suffering if you do not have Jesus in your life. You do not get to heaven being a good person, or doing good deeds. The bible says, unless you are born again, you cannot seen the kingdom of god. We are all sinners upon birth, and if we dont repent and trust in Jesus, we will go to hell. Research for yourself. it sounds harsh, but there is no other way than through Jesus. You are to put it in Gods hands, because you are not the owner of yourself, God is. And if you trust in Him, he will give you what it takes to get through. Its in his hands, not yours. But you must ask him into your life first, and he will give you eternal life. I only tell you this cuz I care, and so does Jesus.

There is times that you will suffer in this life, doesn't mean you commit suicide, let Jesus have control of your life, not you.

Here in Canada it's not legal as of yet, but back in 2006 my grandfather on his 99 birthday was euthanized. I am still furious because the Ontario part of his father, my dad and my sisters and I were not warned until he had already died. In 2022 I'm still very angry about it. Dad was geandpas son why did he not know until it was done. This is one of the many reasons I'm TOTALLY AGAINST Death by suicide.

What about Jesus? He didn’t die on the cross with dignity. Why not finish the process of the illness out? God made us and it should be his decision when we take the last breath. The most important thing is to make sure you have asked Jesus into your heart and to forgive you of your sins. The only way to heaven is through him.🙏🏼❤️

As a person who’s blind, I’m opposed to this idea for the disabled. Yet, Oregon’s got all those homeless camps full of drug addicts. Are they living with dignity in those awful camps? I don’t think so. And, seeing this strikes me as a Christian solution for those Portland. Praises Jesus Christ

Suicide is a sin If she didnt have jesus as saviour shes suffering more in hell.

only god can take you home its wrong

It may be a choice but that doesn't make it right.

This is horrific only God can take a life.

Its not our right to play God.

Assisted suicide….??????? Ugh oh man this is dark!!!!!

There is no dignity in taking a persons life.
