Juliette, whose husband died from terminal oesophageal cancer, said: “As someone with lived experience of watching my husband die slowly and painfully from a terminal illness, I am deeply saddened and disappointed to see the assisted dying Bill being stalled in the House of Lords. I feel that people like me are not being listened to. After the successful vote in the Commons, I had such hope that this legislation would pass. I am holding on to hope, but I am also realistic that time is running out”.
