Public event: End of Life Choice Act
A public information evening on the End of Life Choice Act referendum is being held on Tuesday 8th September 7pm for our Northeast corner of the city 703 Wairere Dr (near SnapFitness, south of the Crosby Rd roundabout)
The speakers will be Dr Lara Hoskins (palliative care specialist), Dominique Tamihana (law student) and Heather and Rachel Major.
I have known Heather for several years (and I knew her late husband Glenn who had a brain tumour ). She works with the elderly and people of all ages with terminal and chronic illnesses.
Her daughter Rachel aged 18 is also going to speak. They have been speaking to hundreds of voters in the last 5 weeks on the details of the Act. They share their family's story about Glenn who would have eligible for euthanasia several times if this had been law.
People often say after Heather's talks "Now I couldn't actually tell if you are for or against euthanasia in general". That means the talk is sticking to the facts of the bill and the referendum decision which is NOT whether the terminally ill should suffer and is NOT whether euthanasia should be legalised.
The specific proposal is: should the "End of Life Choice Act" come into force? Yes or no.
It will be a great evening you can feel happy to invite your neighbour, friend, work colleague to. The speakers hope for curly questions! Bring it on!
