Rebeka Luna, a 49-year-old Canadian woman, passed away after choosing to end her life with medical assistance due to her declining condition caused by early-onset Alzheimer's disease, a rare form that affects individuals under 65. Luna had documented her journey on social media, where she gained over 90,000 followers, sharing her struggles with pain and fear stemming from her illness. She utilized Canada's "Medical Assistance in Dying" (MAID) law, enacted in 2016, which allowed her to make a humane decision to end her life after her condition quickly worsened. The doctors had initially given her a prognosis of 5 to 7 years to live, but her health deteriorated unexpectedly. Luna postponed her passing from August to last week due to her worsening health. In her blog, she expressed a desire for peace and to put an end to her suffering, apologizing for how far she had come. Canada remains one of the countries that legalized assisted dying since 2016, expanding the law to include cases where death is not imminent, and plans to extend it further by 2027 to include individuals with mental illnesses.
