Description
Wendy Mitchell doesn’t fear anything anymore. After her diagnosis of young-onset dementia in 2014, all of Wendy’s old fears melted away: the dark, animals, her girls growing up without their mum. What more was there to be afraid of when she faced her worst fear: losing her own mind?
While living with her diagnosis and facing the extreme changes that come along with a terminal illness, Wendy wrote two Sunday Times-bestselling books, went skydiving for the first time and supports multiple dementia advocacy groups in the UK. She is known for talking about living with dementia, but now – while she is still able to – she explores dying with it.
Consulting policy makers on the topic of assisted dying, lawyers fighting to make it legal and those vehemently opposed to its practice, Wendy reminds us that to get on with the business of living, we need to talk about death. In One Last Thing, Wendy embarks on a journey to explore all angles of death: how we can prepare for it, how we talk about it with our loved ones and how we can be empowered to choose our own ending.
