Terminally ill woman plans internet suicide

A terminally ill woman is to chart her suicide on the internet. ‘‘I’ve lost almost all of my teeth, energy and, most importantly, the will and desire to live,’’ said Australian great-grandmother Nancy Crick, 70.

On her website - which was set up by friends and pro-euthanasia campaigner Dr Philip Nitschke - she wrote that she is frightened of a future filled with pain and indignity and will keep an internet diary of her final days.
