A patient shares his personal experience of the care he received at St Margaret’s Hospice in Clydebank after being told he had only days to live.

His story is a powerful reminder of why compassionate care matters. Today we are being told that a six month prognosis would be enough to qualify someone for assisted suicide under the proposed legislation. Yet as this testimony shows, predictions about life expectancy are not always certain.

Our response to those who are seriously ill should always be care, love and accompaniment, not assistance to end their life.

Stories like this remind us what is at stake.

Contact your MSP today and urge them to reject the Assisted Suicide Bill:

The more we know, the more we say no.
