Crick, Nancy People Right to Die End-of-Life

In May 2002, Crick hastened her death in her Queensland, Australia home with 21 relatives, friends, and right to die activists present. Though many believed she was dying of bowel cancer, a post-mortem examination found no visual evidence of the disease. The 69-year old chronicled the last four months of her life in an online diary in order to raise public awareness and, ultimately, change Australia's laws about assisted dying.
