I recorded my mum's dying wish. She wanted everyone to hear it | Australian Story
Roz Hervey had hours left to live. She asked her family to press record.
When the 58-year-old dance veteran was diagnosed with motor neurone disease, her daughter, actor and filmmaker Tilda Cobham-Hervey, asked if she could document her life story.
Tilda spent weeks interviewing her mum, but it was in the final hours that Roz delivered an impassioned plea about voluntary assisted dying.
