I’m having trouble parsing that actually - it sounds like she’s applied for it and has been approved for it, but would not like to resort to that option.

The conditions accepted for MAiD have broadened but to actually be “approved” for the procedure you have to apply for it. The article says “… comes amid her being approved” not “her condition being eligible”

After decades battling severe ME/CFS and systemic lack of support, Marcia Doherty – known online as “Madeline” – is going fully public in a desperate bid to secure her survival and fight for change. It comes amid her being approved for assisted suicide in Canada – something she doesn’t actually want at all.

I agree with you that this is a persuasive piece which leverages MAiD as a call to action to better care for people with this condition.
