Dame Esther Rantzen, who is battling terminal cancer, has revealed her dream last supper before she plans to end her life through assisted suicide. The TV star and founder of Childline, 83, has signed up to the Switzerland-based euthanasia clinic Dignitas.
She hopes to be able to end her own life when she feels ready, but doesn't want her family to face legal trouble if they help her travel to Switzerland. Currently, those who assist someone in seeking assisted suicide abroad could be accused of murder.
Dame Esther hopes this law will change before she decides to end her life. If she does go to Switzerland for life-ending treatment, she would love to have caviar and champagne as her final meal, despite being allergic to both, the Mirror reports.
She told LBC Radio: "I'd like to fly off to Zurich with my nearest and dearest. Have a fantastic dinner the night before. I'd love caviar, if possible, and the fact that it doesn't always agree with me doesn't matter, does it?"
"I could even have champagne, which I'm deeply allergic to. Then the next day, go to this rather unappealing place where they do it."
Sharing more details of her final plans, she added: "Listen to a favourite piece of music, say goodbye to everybody. Tell them to cheer up. I'm meeting my late husband, my departed dog and my mother at the pearly gates. Hold up my hand for an injection or open my mouth for a rather disgusting medication."
Dame Esther affirms that she wants a chance to go gracefully rather than allowing cancer to ravage her body. She expressed: "I've got an amazing family and a group of friends and colleagues. So I'd like to say goodbye fairly gracefully, as much as I can muster, and then go, that's what I'd like."
