#231 Medical Aid in Dying: A Daughter’s Perspective – Michelle Lapierre, MAiD Advocate
Wed Feb 04 2026
In my view, Michelle Lapierre was fortunate: she and her mother talked openly about end-of-life choices well before those conversations became necessary. And when her mother did become terminally ill, she was clear about her choice: to use Medical Aid in Dying, which has been legal in Colorado since 2017. What led them to have such clarity? What was the experience like? How does Michelle feel about it, years later? How do states like Colorado regulate and advocate for individuals to have this medical option at the end of life? Join us to hear an intimate and educated perspective on MAiD.
