A 55-year-old woman in Toronto, Tracey Thompson, has applied for euthanasia in Canada due to the debilitating effects of long Covid.
The virus, contracted in 2020, has left her bedridden for up to 22 hours daily, destroying her career as a chef and diminishing her quality of life.
With constant soreness, fatigue, and brain fog, she describes her existence as “almost nonexistent.”
Isolated without family or friends, she has drained her savings during the four years of her struggle, seeking relief through Canada’s assisted dying program, known for its permissiveness.
Tracey’s plea sheds light on the profound impact of long Covid on individuals’ lives.
