Brilliant way to get real experiences into the public domain, and show how people live alongside a diagnosis without becoming defined by it. I'd love them to look at options for end of life planning: if they can, we all can and their attitude is fab. Happy to help! @bbc5live teapawt.net/livingwelldying/status…
