Shaking hands with death

Pratchett, Terry2025
Books, Manuscripts
When Terry Pratchett was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in his fifties he was angry - not with death but with the disease that would take him there, and with the suffering disease can cause when we are not allowed to put an end to it. In this essay, he argues for our right to choose - our right to a good life, and a good death too.
