In Canada, since 2016 Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) has become a legal end-of-life option for those suffering from an incurable and deteriorating illness, disease or disability. Diagnosed with a terminal illness, father of five and renown physician Dr. Jay Keystone weighed his options and made the decision to end his life with the help of MAID. His two sons David and Kevin, along with the rest of the Keystone family, supported Dr. Keystone in his decision. Kevin and David recount their memories of a father with an intense joie-de-vivre who made the decision to have a planned and good death.
This inspiring documentary series shines a light on the evolution of death and dying, and the relationship between caregivers and terminal patients. It challenges ideas about end-of-life care and provides new ways to improve the quality of care.
