Rest easy Mike.

We cry when a baby is born and we cry when we lose a dear person.

But sometimes it's only US that cry when a dear person dies. Michael surely cried when he was born but he didn't cry when he left this world into a better place for him. I feel both with him and his relatives and friends and especially Vickie.

I work at a live in facility that has patients with Huntingtons disease. It is an awful disease. I have seen people go through it. God bless you.

As a Hospice Nurse. It’s hard to watch everyday. The same time I understand the quality of life. What that means.

A hard decision to make, but I respect his wish to suffer no longer. I hope he rests well.

My God, I admire the courage of this man, and the grace of this woman. She was able to say a soft goodbye to the one she loved most, and she made a decision to honor him by continuing to LIVE.

Rest easy, Mike. I hope you’re partying away. We never met but I’ll remember you.

This video made me cry so much. The strength of this familly to truck through this is inspiring. I hope you are enjoying your parties, Michael.

My husband's grandmother has been suffering from Alzheimer's for about a more than a decade now. Well, "suffering." She's even not self-aware enough anymore to know that she's sick. She's like a vegetable; doesn't talk or move out of the bed, can't remember where she is or who we are or who she is herself. My mother-in-law told me once that her mother used to be a busybody, curious and full energy, always gossiping and not knowing (or caring) when to stop talking. Nowadays, she just stares at you for a moment before going back to staring at the ceiling. Told my family if I ever get diagnosed with that disease, I'd make sure to end it on my own terms before I end up her.

I don't want to cause others distress by my comments but: Michael's going to be a party animal?! This is truly a tragic statement. And others have commented on how cruel and worthless this life seems. I truly believe we are living right now in the last days which the Bible discusses and warns about. Bizarre, horrible things are happening every minute. This is our real situation but this is not real. truth. I am praying and trust- ing that some who read these words will be encouraged to find God's ultimate truth and divine hope and truth that is found in HIS word, which is HIS letter to every soul that has lived or will live on this planet we call home

My nana passed in corona. I couldn’t see her. I couldn’t say goodbye. It will haunt me for the rest of my life. This is the BEST way to go. The most humane way to go. Surrounded my friends, family, after a long life & being at peace painlessly in the moment you pass. God bless him

Much appreciation and respect for showing this journey. I can only see selfless love represented here.

Cool he got to be in that wonderful garden...God Bless his wife...

I guess being able to say goodbye and tell family and friends your love will be with them the rest of their lives.

Why is this such a hotly debated subject. As long as all parties agree why not let the patient decide when and where. Nobody wants to watch a loved one fade away. Xxxx

Wishing everyone much peace. The right to choose is important. Not a easy road to travel.

I have nothing but love for these people. I had watched a similar story a while back, & the guy had some very valid points for anyone saying how dare you play God...because doctors are doing this every time they use technology to save a premature baby being born that would other wise pass away without their help, technology of heart surgery, pacemakers, &,life support! Its only when someone wants to not suffer & choose. Do people judge . Regardless how you see it rather u see the outcome good or bad...doesn't change the fact that they both are essentially playing 'God"....Sending love to this family! 🙏🏼❤

I am very much touched by this video! I wanted to watch it because I wanted to know more about 'when one decides to leave this World. Thank you so much for sharing !

I have an amazing story. One time I was driving home and I felt the presence of the Lord, come down to me from above. I started getting chills and I felt so comfortable with Him. I knew if I asked Him to play a song on the radio, He would. So I said "Ok Lord, play Come as you are..." I didn't know what station it was on or anything, but I turned the radio on and the song started playing right on the spot, perfectly... I started getting flooded with chills inside, and started crying. When I got home, He stayed with me for 10 minutes till I got out of the car. I've been getting answered prayers for around 5 years since, because that visitation eliminated doubt and I follow Biblical instructions as best as I can. Maid is a satanic, slippery slope.

Micallef is a Maltese surname. Caw hanini (goodbye dear)

just as people have a right to live they also have a right to end their life. a while back lawrence hill wrote an excellent opinion piece in the globe and mail. a personal account about his mother that i hope was understood by decision makers who as trudeau said have no business in our lives. since there is no more privacy just let us be

how sad

I'm 47 and I am thankful I have that right for assistance in my passing. I am so completely out of energy and I am ready to pass. Sadly in my case I have morons for doctors who have opinions of not helping me find out what's wrong.

ohhh what we can do to stop like that

I feel like I knew him.

Maybe it's selfishness inside of me but I wouldn't be happy I don't like losing people

This is soooo wrong in so many levels.
