The widow of locked-in syndrome sufferer Tony Nicklinson will continue his fight to win a landmark ruling for the legal right to die.
Jane Nicklinson said she would appeal against a decision at the High Court in London made over her late husband, because "nobody should have to suffer like Tony did".
Mr Nicklinson, 58, died at home on August 22 a week after he lost his legal bid to end his life at a time he chose with a doctor's help. The father of two had been refusing food and contracted pneumonia after he was left "crestfallen" by the court's decision.
