A terminally-ill woman taking a landmark case for assisted suicide regrets not ending her life when she was able to do it herself, Ireland’s highest court heard.

A lawyer for multiple sclerosis (MS) sufferer Marie Fleming said she believes she faces a painful, humiliating and distressing death if she cannot choose to die peacefully at home in the arms of her partner Tom Curran, who would be left facing a threat of jail.
