CASE #2: Brittany Maynard  Brittany Maynard was 29 years old, lived in Northern California, and had a loving husband.  She graduated from University of California Berkeley and University of California Irvine with a masters in education. She loved to travel and volunteer with animals.  However, soon after she got married, she discovered she had a severe form of brain cancer. The doctors told her she had less than 6 months to live.

 Brittany did not want to go through the terrible symptoms of brain cancer, so she decided to move to Oregon, where “assisted suicide” is allowed because of a “Death with Dignity” Law.  In Oregon, if you are terminally ill, a doctor can prescribe you lethal medication.  husbands-birthday/

The Doctor Is In 1. Choose who will be the “doctors” and the “patients.” I will hand out scenario cards. 2. The doctors and patients have 2-3 minutes to write down ideas to for arguments they may make (think about what the doctor and patient may argue!). 3. The Doctor sits in the Doctor Chair and waits for his or her patients to come in. Each doctor has 2-3 patients. 4. The patients try to convince the doctor to prescribe lethal medication to them or provide euthanasia for a relative (5 minutes each). 5. The doctor chooses whether to prescribe the medication or provide euthanasia and asks the audience if they agree with their decision.
