ENCORE: This Is What Dignity Looks Like: A Daughter’s Story in Support of Voluntary Assisted Dying

This is an encore episode of the Don't Be Caught Dead podcast and a listener favourite from Season 2.

In this heartfelt episode of Don't Be Caught Dead, I sit down with Barb Gering, who shares her deeply personal journey as she navigated her mother's cancer diagnosis and the complexities of voluntary assisted dying. Barb's story is a powerful reminder of the importance of choice and dignity at the end of life. She reflects on the emotional rollercoaster of treatment, the candid conversations with her mother, and the profound impact of having the option to choose how and when to say goodbye.

We will return with our new season on Thursday, 26 February 2026.
