"The moment we condone murder—assisted suicide—even for those just tenuously still attached to life, we set ourselves upon a wicked path, one where the worth of a person is measured empirically. Assisted suicide begets euthanasia and a society that makes intellectual peace with euthanasia is one that puts at risk every human being in it, but most especially the constituency of the vulnerable: The grievously ill, the chronically ill, the mentally ill, the unproductive the economically draining, the recidivist, the subversive. Maybe you, maybe me."

Elle reçoit à la suite le diagnostic que son malaise est causé par la sclérose en plaques. En fin d’année 2001, si fatiguée que des fois, elle ne peut se tenir debout, et ne peut se vêtir seule ou couper sa nourriture, elle a recours au fauteuil roulant. Elle apprend alors à l’Hôpital d’Ottawa qu’il lui serait possible de prendre part à un essai clinique qui pourrait peut-être ralentir la progression de sa maladie. Ce traitement à l’aide de cellules souches adultes conçu par le Dr. Harold Atkins, hématoloque et le Dr. Mark Freedman, neurologue à l’hôpital consiste à complètement détruire le système immunitaire ayant recours à la chimiothérapie.
