Norma and Michelle are both living with life-changing health conditions. But they disagree on whether it should become legal to give terminally-ill people assistance to end their lives. As MSPs prepare to vote on the broad principles of a proposed assisted dying bill, Norma and Michelle explain their perspectives on this emotive and controversial issue. If you are suffering distress or despair and need support, including urgent support, or if you need advice and support with bereavement or other issues we’ve discussed today, a list of organisations that can help is available at bbc.co.uk/actionline.
