The son of a woman who took her own life with the help of doctors at a Swiss clinic has spoken out on the legislation surrounding assisted dying.
Andrew Squires, from Southport, along with his brother Peter, travelled to Switzerland with their 67-year-old mum, Glenys Porter, where she underwent an assisted death at Dignitas, Liverpool Echo reports.
Glenys spent 10 years prior to her death battling the advanced stages of Huntington's disease, a neurological disorder which robs sufferers of their ability to walk, talk or swallow.
