This. I definitely want the option of MAID and I want to put it in my will. They should allow you decades in advance to state if you move from mild to moderate dementia you want to have death with dignity and put exactly how you define moderate. That way it is known you made the decision of sound mind and there should be no guilt for adult children following wishes.

I have a parent who even if it was available would never consider it and that is fine. She has always had an addiction to anger/drama/verbal abuse/victimhood and now her brain lets her engage with abandon. She gets a sinister smile sometimes when she behaves terribly and she seems to enjoy complaining about her ailments and then berating even total strangers if they don't humor and comfort an old lady. I have no doubt if she gets to the point of losing all independence we will have a revolving door of caregivers unwilling to deal with the abuse unless she is heavily medicated.[/quote]
