END-OF-LIFE decisions have become a burning topic of discussion in South Africa, where former President Nelson Mandela has been hospitalised for five weeks.
Graca Michel, Mandela's wife, said on Friday she is "less anxious" about her husband's health than she was a week ago.
Friends and family who have visited Mandela say he is responsive and they feel he is communicative through facial and eye movements.
He is assisted by mechanical breathing, support he may require for the rest of his life.
Sean Davison, the founder of DignitySA, a group working to legalise suicide for the terminally ill, says Mandela's critical health has made death and dying a big topic of discussion in South Africa.
Davison says that's good because most people in Western society avoid talking about the topic.
