Description:
This story contains references to severe mental suffering which some viewers might find distressing. <br/> <br/>Germany, France and the UK are all currently debating whether medically assisted dying should be permitted, and for whom. <br/> <br/>But medical assistance in dying in Canada, also known as MAID, is already available for adults with terminal illness, or serious and chronic medical conditions. <br/> <br/>Canada has been considering for the past year whether to include eligibility for those who suffer solely from a mental illness sparking a heated debate - but this year decided to delay. <br/> <br/>The BBC follows one man considering applying for MAID, and the impact of the government’s decision. <br/><br/>If you are suffering distress or despair and need support, you could speak to a health professional, or an organisation that offers support. Details of help available in many countries can be found at Befrienders Worldwide. www.befrienders.org <br/> <br/>In the UK details of help and support are available at bbc.co.uk/actionline<br/><br/>#AssistedDying #BBCNews

The poignant story unfolds against the backdrop of conflict and despair in the region, shedding light on the harsh realities faced by civilians amidst ongoing turmoil.<br/><br/>The harrowing tale began with the untimely death of the infant's mother, a victim of the violence that has engulfed Gaza. In a remarkable feat of medical intervention, doctors managed to deliver the baby via emergency cesarean section, offering a glimmer of hope amid the darkness of tragedy.<br/><br/>However, despite the valiant efforts of healthcare professionals, the fragile newborn succumbed to the challenges of life outside the womb, underscoring the fragility of existence in a war-torn environment.<br/><br/>This heart-wrenching incident serves as a stark reminder of the human toll exacted by conflict, as innocent lives are irrevocably altered and futures shattered. As the world mourns the loss of this innocent soul, the plight of the people of Gaza resonates with renewed urgency, calling for an end to the cycle of violence and a renewed commitment to peace and humanitarian aid.<br/><br/>Stay tuned to BBC 2.0 News for further updates on this developing story and its implications for the region.")
