To finish the mini documentary series, I will provide another health related documentary which I have watched and found particular fascinating. The topic of assisted suicide is another topic which I hope to write a review on both of the documentaries in a later date, but until then I hope you enjoy this final feature.
The topic of assisted suicide is presented by the late Sir Terry Pratchett, legendary British author and suffer of Alzhiemer's disease. The hour long documentary explores the world of those older adults who suffer from neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Motor Neurone Disease, and how they consider the idea of assisted suicide. There are many moral quandaries which both those suffering from the disease and their carers face, along with the ensuring any actions taken are within the law. However within this bleak area of human health, this documentary really delves within the reality of the disease the subsequent consequences, which due to the expanding older populations, will become and more and more common as years go by.
