Terminally ill woman holds
party before ending her life
SAN DIEGO (AP) — In
early July, Betsy Davis
emailed her closest friends
and relatives to invite them
to a two-day party, telling
them: “These circumstances
are unlike any party you have
attended before, requiring
emotional stamina, centered-
ness and openness.”
And just one rule: No
crying in front of her.
The 41-year-old artist with
ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease,
held the gathering to say
goodbye before becoming one
of the irst Californians to take
a lethal dose of drugs under
the state’s new doctor-assisted
suicide law for the terminally
ill.
“For me and everyone
who was invited, it was very
challenging to consider, but
there was no question that we
would be there for her,” said
Niels Alpert, a cinematogra-
pher from New York City.
“The idea to go and spend
a beautiful weekend that
culminates in their suicide
— that is not a normal thing,
not a normal, everyday occur-
rence. In the background of
the lovely fun, smiles and
laughter that we had that
weekend was the knowledge
of what was coming.”
Davis worked out a detailed
schedule for the gathering on
the weekend of July 23-24,
including the precise hour she
planned to slip into a coma,
and shared her plans with her
guests in the invitation.
More than 30 people
came to the party at a home
with a wraparound porch
in the picturesque Southern
California mountain town of
Ojai, lying in from New York,
Chicago and across California.
One woman brought
a cello. A man played a
harmonica. There were cock-
tails, pizza from her favorite
local joint, and a screening
in her room of one of her
favorite movies, “The Dance
of Reality,” based on the life
of a Chilean ilm director.
As the weekend drew to
a close, her friends kissed
her goodbye, gathered for a
photo and left, and Davis was
wheeled out to a canopy bed
on a hillside, where she took
a combination of morphine,
pentobarbital and chloral
hydrate prescribed by her
doctor.
Kelly Davis said she
loved her sister’s idea for the
gathering, which Betsy Davis
referred to as a “rebirth.”
“Obviously it was hard for
me. It’s still hard for me,” said
Davis, who wrote about it for

Niels Alpert via AP
In this July 24 photo provided by Niels Alpert,
Betsy Davis, third from left, has a laugh with her friends
during a going away party in Ojai, Calif.
the online news outlet Voice
of San Diego. “The worst was
needing to leave the room
every now and then, because
I would get choked up. But
people got it. They understood
how much she was suffering
and that she was ine with her
decision. They respected that.
They knew she wanted it to be
a joyous occasion.”
Davis ended her life a little
over a month after a Cali-
fornia law giving the option
to the terminally ill went into
effect. Four other states allow
doctor-assisted suicide, with
Oregon the irst in 1997.
Opponents of the law in
lobbying against it before
state legislators argued that
hastening death was morally
wrong, that it puts terminally
ill patients at risk for coerced
death by loved ones and could
become a way out for people
who are uninsured or fearful
of high medical bills.
Marilyn Golden of the
Disability Rights Education &
Defense Fund, said her heart
goes out to anyone dealing
with a terminal illness, but
“there are still millions of
people in California threatened
by the danger of this law.”
Davis
spent
months
planning her exit, feeling
empowered after spending the
last three years losing control
of her body bit by bit. The
painter and performance artist
could no longer stand, brush
her teeth or scratch an itch.
Her caretakers had to translate
her slurred speech for others.
“Dear rebirth participants
you’re all very brave for
sending me off on my
journey,” she wrote in her
invitation. “There are no rules.
Wear what you want, speak
your mind, dance, hop, chant,
sing, pray, but do not cry in
front of me. OK, one rule.”
During the party, old
friends reconnected and Davis
rolled in and out of the rooms
in her electric wheelchair and
onto the porch, talking with
her guests.
At one point, she invited
friends to her room to try on
the clothes she had picked
out for them. They modeled
the outits to laughter. Guests
were also invited to take
a “Betsy souvenir” — a
painting, beauty product or
other memento. Her sister
had placed sticky notes on the
items, explaining each one’s
signiicance.
Wearing
a
Japanese
kimono she bought on a buck-
et-list trip she took after being
diagnosed in 2013, she looked
out at her last sunset and took
the drugs at 6:45 p.m. with
her caretaker, her doctor, her
massage therapist and her
sister by her side. Four hours
later, she died.
