Experience article

The article below brought tears to my eyes. The Guardian runs a weekly column called Experience, which I always love to read. People recount life experiences which changed them, most of them very difficult experiences. Especially I threw £100,000 in the bin.
I was with my friend when she died.
It recounts a woman with COPD taking her life at the Dignitas clinic in Switzerland. I'm not posting it as a debate on euthanasia, but because the friendship depicted and the woman's strength of character is so moving.
Please don't respond to this with wank over euthanasia, but regardless... it's worth a read. The whole series is worth a read.
