In today's episode of Living is When Dignity Meets Care, we're joined by Dr. Ramona Coelho, a family physician from London, Ontario, whose practice centers on patients living with disability, poverty, mental health challenges, and other forms of vulnerability.

Dr. Coelho shares how her own biases and fears about suffering and disability were reshaped through life-changing relationships with her patients — and what that journey taught her about hope, healing, and dignity.

We trace her frontline perspective on Canada's evolving MAID legislation, from Bill C-14 to today's debates over expanding access to people facing mental illness, and ask what it will take — from governments and from each of us — to build a more inclusive, compassionate society.
