Episode description

Since Voluntary Assisted Dying (known as VAD) was legalised in Australia, over 2,400 terminally ill people have chosen to end their lives this way. Dr Bu O'Brien is one of the few Voluntary Assisted Dying practitioners. I asked her about why she has chosen this path. My name is Essam Al-Ghalib, and this is SBS Audio's Weekend One on One.
