Brittany Maynard was perhaps the greatest advocate for Medical Aid in Dying in the state of California. Diagnosed with a brain tumor in 2013, Brittany was forced to leave her home state of California in a move to Oregon so she could take advantage of their Medical Aid in Dying law. Her husband, Dan Diaz, was with her throughout this experience, supporting and loving her throughout her bout with cancer. In this episode, Dan Diaz joins us to share Brittany’s story, why Medical Aid in Dying was so important to her, and why he continues to be an advocate for the movement today.

Send us a Text - Leave an email in your message if you want to hear back from us! Show notes: Recorded on Aug, 17 2022 . This is one of the two episodes that were released after Andrew’s passing. We originally planned on releasing this episode before his passing and the final transmission (episode 21) after his passing. But, things didn’t work out that way. It didn’t feel right to release them one by one so we decided to release them simultaneously. About the guest: Ginger Fairchild is a registered veterinary nurse and has a bachelor’s degree in psychology. She is the widow of Sargeant Matt Fairchild who chose MAID after enduring nearly a decade of chemotherapy, radiation, hospitalizations, and surgeries in connection to his skin cancer diagnosis, which subsequently spread to his brain, bones, and lymph nodes. Andrew and Ginger have a really insightful conversation about her and Matt’s journey, MAID, how to talk to people who are sick, and much more.
