I only personally know one person who has chosen MAID. He was a close family friend and was very ill. He decided that once he got to the point where he could no longer walk that he didn't see any further point in living. There was nothing more any medical system could do for him. He reached that point and he died on his terms.

I also had family member die recently; he was 95 years old. At 85 he said it was time to go into a home and went and did that for a few years. But at 95 he just decided he was done. He told everyone and then he just stopped eating. Within in a week he was gone.
