Like I earlier Parkinson's Disease isn't going to kill me, however I've met people who were diagnosed at the same age as me, who ten years down the line, can't walk, can't talk and shake excessively. If I get that bad before a cure is found, I would like to say I would prefer to be dead, although I would never suggest that other people should follow the same course of action.

I want a legal option. It's all very well for people to say this, like Gayle discussing it with her husband, but as the law stands, if your loved one is unable to take their own life, even after giving clear instruction when they were well, what to do in this situation, the person assisting their loved one to end their life is acting illegally. People are prosecuted and even imprisoned every year for doing what their loved one asked them to do, because they were to ill to carry out their own wishes.

The law needs changing.
