Digital Stories Project
Digital Stories: Part 1
Research Project &
Diane Sims
In part one of this three-part episode of Disrupting Death, hosts Kathy and Keri have the honour of sharing information about their research in medical assistance in dying, a component of which is digital storytelling, and Keri sits down with Diane Sims, the project’s only (to date) participant who herself has opted for MAiD. As is the case for all three parts of what Kathy calls the trifecta episode, listeners are invited to lean in and listen but also consider visiting the website or our Youtube Channel to view the corresponding digital story. Part One’s digital story, entitled MAiD: A Servant In Deed, was created by Diane Sims.

MAiD A Servant in Deed
I made this recording because I’m suffering and want to check out on my own terms with MAiD. I want to educate why MAiD is so valuable. So far, my support workers and my husband have been able to care for me. I never want a waiting-for-God nursing home. I am a writer, a communicator, and when I can’t speak or keyboard then it’s time to kiss and raise my hand in farewell.
