Brain cancer sufferer ‘still determined to take own life’

A 29-year-old terminally ill woman who previously said she planned to take her own life on November 1 under Oregon’s death-with-dignity law has said she hasn’t decided yet when she’ll end her life, but it’s a decision she’s still determined to make.

Maynard, who has brain cancer, previously said she planned to end her life tomorrow.

Maynard moved to Oregon from Northern California because Oregon allows terminally ill patients to end their lives with lethal medications prescribed by a doctor.
