Canadian Woman With Back Pain Goes To ER, Gets Offered DEATH!

Be careful about reporting a pain, a physical problem, maybe even a broken nail, in one nation.

You might get offered the help you need to kill yourself.

Just that has happened in the so-called modern nation of Canada, where Miriam Lancaster, 84, went to Vancouver General Hospital last year with back pain, which turned out to be a fractured sacrum at the base of the spine, a common injury for elderly.

"I was approached by a young lady doctor whose very first words out of her mouth is we would like to offer you euthanasia,' Lancaster said.

According to a report from the New York Post, which urged, "Just die already," The woman had awakened with a serious back pain and went for help, only to be "shocked when a doctor offered to help her die instead."

Medical Assistance in Dying is Canada's "voluntary" euthanasia program that gradually is being expanded so that just about anyone can die at any time for any reason, if they choose.

Lancaster confirmed the pain was serious, but she hadn't been hoping to die.

"I was taken aback. That was the last thing on my mind. I just wanted to find out why I was in pain -- I did not want to die."

She has since been treated, recovered, and has traveled to Cuba, Mexico and Guatemala since.

"To be offered euthanasia right off the bat for a non-life-threatening condition? It was a matter of pain management," she explained. "Just because someone is 84 does not mean they're ready to go on the scrap heap of life."

It actually was, she charged, an "insult to seniors."

After she firmly rejected the death agenda of the hospital, doctors eventually offered her rehab, but warned it was "a long road, and it will be very difficult."

She spent 10 days in the hospital and then three weeks in a rehab program, and only weeks later, walked her daughter down the aisel at her wedding.

Lancaster shared death had also been urged by physicians when her late husband, John, was fighting cancer in 2023.

"Of course, he turned it down. We are churchgoers. We both are ready to go when the Lord calls us, and that's what happened to him," she said.
