I was shocked at how graphic this movie was. They never cut away from the horrific reality of this illness, or the suicide attempt. I can't begin to imagine the conflicting emotions one much feel when not wanting a parent to die, but not wanting them to suffer, and allowing them to make a choice, before the option is taken away. This was a nasty reminder that life is sometimes not fair. Great performances from everyone. Under these circumstances people should have the right to end their life.

One thing that confused me was that she was a doctor, wouldn't she have access to medication that would have done the job, instead of flying to a different country.
