I'll die when I choose.

Introduced by Jeremy Vine this programme looks at assisted suicide for the terminally ill. Labour MP Margo MacDonald, suffering with Parkinson's disease investigates the current laws on euthanasia and meets people who are ill and wishing to die as well as people who have experienced the willing suicide of their loved ones. John Bowman's mother was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in the 1980s. His father helped her to die privately at home. Margo meets Val who is at the end stages of a very virulent form of multiple sclerosis and wants to decide when she's ready to die and to die at home with her family around her and medical assistance. Sheila McGettrick who runs the Prince and Princess Wales hospice in Edinburgh is against assisted suicide, while in Amsterdam the process is legal and carried out by registered GPs.
