Description
AFPTV refiles some of its most notable stories of 2024. Born hemiplegic and nearly blind, 43-year-old Lydie Imhoff was gradually losing the use of her limbs. Last year, she made the decision to travel from her native France to Belgium to undergo euthanasia -- for "fear of living in a dead body." The procedure was made legal in Belgium two decades ago but is still outlawed in France. An AFP team joined her on her final journey. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES ARRANGED IN SEQUENCES
