Personal stories are powerful. Do you have one to share?

Friend, we're curious. When did you first realise you supported assisted dying?

 

Many of us change our views on the law after seeing a loved one suffer at the end of their life. In fact, that's how a lot of our supporters first became aware of assisted dying. 

 

No one should have to suffer needlessly in death. That's why we're collecting personal stories and messages about assisted dying - to show the government how urgently the law needs to change. 

 

 

Friend, could you spare a moment to tell us why assisted dying matters to you? 

 

I'll share my story

 

Heather Pratten had just lost her husband to Huntington's Disease - a degenerative brain disorder - when her son, Nigel, was diagnosed with it too. 

 

Heather and Nigel had already watched her husband die - and they knew the distress and suffering the disease could cause.  So when Nigel told his mum that he wanted to end his life, she supported him. And she almost went to prison for doing so.

 

Now, Heather is using her story to support other terminally ill people who want the right to die with dignity. She has inspired people up and down the country to keep fighting for a change to the law - all with the power of her experiences.

 

Friend, your story could change someone's life. Will you share it with us today?

 

Yes, I'll share

 

Thanks, friend.
