Myalgic Encephalomyelitis does not have to be a deadly disease. As hundreds of thousands of people with so-called "Long Haul COVID-19" are being diagnosed with the illness, people like Madeline have been fighting for treatment for decades. She is facing a ticking clock, as her final few weeks of being able to pay for minimal care, approach. Without treatment she fears a full collapse, she has chosen a medically assisted death. Madeline says she and others with treatable diseases being forced into choosing a medically induced death over a rapid and painful decline into more severe disability.
