This is a story about medical aid in dying (MAID), and takes place at a house terminally ill people visit to take a life-ending medication.
Although it is now legal in 11 states across the US, MAID is still relatively unknown. This story explores how some people choose to encounter their own death: from community and access, care-giving and medical aid, to the intimate process of dying and the tenderness of grieving.
While death often happens behind closed doors and in clinical settings, these photographs are an invitation to look at an inevitable aspect of life in a new way.
