The Many Faces of MAID is a compilation of stories from seventeen people who have direct experience of their loved one choosing a medically assisted death. These stories facilitate real, emotional connections to the raw and uncensored experiences of the storytellers, and encompass a wide range of emotions, from easy to difficult and from expected to unexpected. The perspectives the storytellers offer are not complete accounts of their experiences. Rather, they are small glimpses into some of the intimate moments and emotions they've felt moved to share with others.

This book provides readers with opportunities to find comfort, companionship, and validation of their own emotions. It's also a chance for them to explore the many feelings they are likely to experience before, during, and after their loved one's MAID. They may experience many of the emotions expressed in these pages, or they may experience different emotions. Every journey is unique, and every journey is valid. Readers are encouraged to jump into this book at any point of the MAID journey and to know that they are not alone.

The stories and emotions in this book ring very true and authentic, offering something for everyone. It is a very helpful resource that I will absolutely be recommending to the patients and families I work with.
