He is fighting so that the terminally ill do not have to die alone.
Published: Nov. 01, 2024, 5:00 a.m. Blur drummer Dave Rowntree is speaking out after he says his terminally ill ex-wife, Paola Marra, was forced to die alone earlier this year.
“This is psychopathic, where we are now, because the whole point of this to try to make things easier for the real victim in this — the terminally ill person.” “If you’re considering taking your own life, you are able to do it isolated and alone, and anyone that is even suspected of helping in any material way can be arrested you can get 14 years in jail,” Rowntree said. “It’s utterly brutal for the ill person because anyone they tell is potentially at risk of arrest, so they have to creep around like a criminal.
