Death with Dignity Law is the topic of our show today. This is not an easy topic to talk about, unless, you are facing an ultimately fatal condition with debilitating pain and suffering which has no hope of improvement or cure. Some say this is a choice that we as humans should have, others say it’s playing God. Today’s discussion is going to take you on a journey to explore your own thoughts about what is right, wrong and what is humane and ultimately if this is something you would even consider. Many states now are signing Death with Dignity Law.

Our incredible special guest today is Mr. Alan A. Pfeffer, Esq. who has been lobbying our government to change the criteria for the right to die which is modeled on the Oregon model. Alan says, “I am advocating to get the pending legislation in NY on death with dignity modified so as to permit people with HD to take advantage of the mercy that the legislation is intended to provide. In all the bills throughout the country including what was just passed in California, people with H D are left out.” What? How are people with the worst disease known to man being left out of this law? Well tonight we are going to find out…

Help 4 HD International does not advocate for or against the Death with Dignity Law. Only that everyone should be informed about the subject matter presented in order to educate themselves. We thank Mr. Pfeffer for his courage to talk openly about this very sensitive topic.
