Brittany Maynard Diaz Grand Canyon Trip Fills her Bucket List

Brittany Maynard Diaz marked her final wish in her bucket list, "Before I pass, I'm hoping to make it to the Grand Canyon 'cause I've never been."

Earlier this week, Diaz, the 29-year old terminal brain cancer patient ticked off one of her dreams listed in her bucket list. She was able to see the Grand Canyon that she wishes to visit long time with her loved ones.

In her exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Brittany Maynard Diaz stated that, she and her family traveled to the Grand Canyon. "Thanks to the kindness of Americans around the country who came forward to make my bucket list dream come true."

The Grand Canyon was one of the places that she really wanted to see and early this week, Diaz was able to witness its beauty. She was able to enjoy two things she love most, her family and nature, she wrote on Compassion and Choices Oct. 24.

Brittany Maynard Diaz, a volunteer advocate to end-of-life choice organization, Compassion and Choices is suffering from a terminally brain tumor. She chooses to end her life on Nov. 1. Diaz moved from California to Oregon with her husband Dan Diaz and her mother, Debbie Ziegler, one of the 5 states that strongly support death with dignity.

As she continues battling with her sickness, Brittany Maynard Diaz had fulfilled her bucket list wishes so far. In her video posted in Oct. 6 she states, she had seen Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming with her husband, went kayaking to the glaciers in Alaska with her best friend, and she went to Juneau, where she and her mom took a "spectacular boat trip."

Brittany Maynard Diaz wrote, the symptoms are still getting worse and she cannot forget the fact that she has cancer. The next morning, she experienced severe headaches and neck pain which she considered the worst seizure so far. She then reminded, her death date is not written on stones. Her decision to end her life still depends on how well she feels on that day.
