Former palliative care nurse with MS tells of wish to die in RTÉ documentary Do No Harm

A former Irish nurse in the latter stages of MS has spoken movingly of her wish to die when her suffering becomes too great.

In the compelling RTÉ Documentary On One, Do No Harm, 51-year-old Kate Tobin tells of her fear that a relative would be jailed if they helped her to travel to Switzerland for assisted suicide.

The former palliative care nurse, who was also a nun in the past, says she knows all too well about the end stages of her disease.
