An Ontario family is calling for changes to medical assistance in dying (MAID) after the death of their son in B.C.

Kiano Vafaeian was 26 years old when he received MAID on Dec. 30. His family says he lived with Type 1 diabetes and partial vision loss, but says that his biggest struggle was his mental health, which they believe should have made him ineligible for MAID.

“He said everything the doctors needed to hear in order to approve him,” Margaret Marsilla, Vafaeian’s mother, said. “Was he actually feeling that way? I strongly believe not.”
