Dr Rodney Syme joined VESV, now Dying with Dignity Victoria, in 1991. He served 12 years as President. In 2008, he published A Good Death, which describes some of his experiences with terminally ill and suffering people. Dr Syme, now Vice-President of DWDV, continues to run workshops on “End-of-life Choices”. Last year, Dr Syme made a public admission that in 2005 he had provided a terminally ill cancer patient with Nembutal that enabled him to end his life. 98 doctors responded with a letter of support for Dr Syme, who has still not been charged in relation to this matter. Please come along and invite your friends and family too. The venue is wheelchair accessible with a dedicated accessible toilet.
