I worked in palliative care, and years ago I strongly supported MAID for people experiencing unbearable suffering at the end of life.

Today, my questions are different.

I recently listened to a young man with a disability say that people with disabilities absolutely deserve the right to choose—but only after they’ve had real access to the medical care, therapies, supports, housing, and resources they need to live.

That stopped me.

This isn’t about judging anyone’s personal decision. It’s about asking whether, as a society, we’ve done enough to help people live before we make it easier for them to die.

I’m genuinely curious how others think about this. Can we support personal autonomy while also making sure no one chooses death because they felt abandoned?

I asked Louise to choose a tarot card for her future…

She confidently picked the Prince of Hearts. ❤️🐔

So… does this mean romance is in the coop? 😂

Should I be looking for a handsome rooster, or is she just manifesting extra treats?

Either way, she’s clearly more optimistic than I am. 🤣

If you read tarot… what would you tell Louise?

People often ask me what Aqua-Vie is.

The truth is… it’s almost impossible to describe with words.

It’s that feeling when your shoulders finally soften.
When your breathing slows without trying.
When your mind gets quiet.
When your whole body remembers what calm feels like.

For over 30 years, I’ve watched warm water become a place where people reconnect with themselves.

I’ll be in Montreal this Thursday for a limited number of Aqua-Vie sessions, and I still have a few spaces available.

If your body has been asking for a break, perhaps it’s time to listen.
