This is a really different episode for me. My Mum died in 2018, soon after I'd posted my second ever video to the internet. She had a horrible final year of life, consumed by anxiety and fear about how she would die, having been diagnosed with an incurable terminal disease. I explore the arguments for and against Assisted Dying, both as a son who cared for his mother through a horrible disease, and as a doctor.
