Subject: End of Life Options
Dr. Joanne Roberts provided a thoughtful opinion on the End-of-life Options
Bill (Star Tribune 5/30/2024). One aspect of the issue was omitted, probably
because it is thought to be covered by the proposed safeguards. To the
sensitive, thoughtful person a common motivation is “to not be a burden to
my family.”
The end of life is an important time for tying up affairs, not just financial but
social and spiritual. Parts of those tasks may be uncomfortable and a person
may wish to avoid that which is better faced.
