The British vote on assisted dying indicates a growing recognition of it as a compassionate option. Lessons may be drawn from the successful U.S. experience.
In the U.S., medical aid in dying has proven successful, with no substantive issues arising, countering fears of discrimination or abuse among vulnerable populations.
Surprisingly, less than 1 in 100 dying patients choose euthanasia, yet the option itself offers significant peace of mind to those nearing life's end.
Public support for medical aid in dying is strong in both the U.K. and U.S., with major medical and legal organizations backing relevant legislation.
