For Martinetto, information is power – people should be aware of their options, she says, even outside of California’s established MAID process.

“I want the word to get out. Regardless of what people decide, I want them to feel they have control over how they die,” she says. “I just want people to know they have options and give people autonomy. It gives peace of mind.”
