John Southall waters the plants and feeds the fish in his pond every morning, though he’s not sure why. His partner used to do it, but seven weeks ago, Gill Pharaoh, a healthy former nurse, with no serious complaints beyond a bad back and tinnitus, committed suicide at a Swiss clinic at the age of 75.
Explaining her decision, she wrote that she enjoyed life “day by day”, but felt her life was complete and that she was ready to die a good death. And so she did, in a doctor-assisted suicide at the Lifecircle clinic in Basle.
