Personal stories

Kevin was angry that he could not choose a dignified death once his suffering became too much to bear.

She died very angry, feeling that it was simply unfair that other people should have made her suffer in this way and denied her choice.

My father, Paul Chamberlain, died as a result of Motor Neurone Disease (MND). In the final months of his life, Dad campaigned passionately with Dignity in Dying.

Tracy loved her life, she loved me, she loved her son and she loved her job. She had everything to live for and did not want to die.
