'What we terminally ill need is to be allowed the hope that if life becomes intolerable, we can ask for help to leave it. That we are given the right to choose, not to shorten our lives, but to shorten our deaths, for our own sake, and for the sake of those who care about us.'

Highly recommend this gig in London if you can make it!
