**TRIGGER WARNING: UPSETTING/DISTRESSING CONTENT***
The daughter of the Co Cavan-based woman who was assisted in ending her life alone at a controversial Swiss clinic has told of her sadness and disbelief after her ashes were sent home in the post.
Maureen Slough (58), who had a history of mental illness, travelled to the Pegasos clinic in Switzerland on July 8 having told her family she was going to Lithuania with a friend.
She later ended her life in the clinic, apparently while Elvis Presley gospel music played in the background.
Maureen’s daughter Megan Royal, who lives in Dublin, said the first she knew that her mother had died was when a volunteer for the group sent her a WhatsApp message, which was also received by her mother’s partner Mick Lynch.
Megan bravely joined us on The Agenda this morning to share her harrowing story.
