A WOMAN who admitted giving her terminally ill seven-year-old son a lethal dose of morphine to "quietly end his life" has died after her own cancer hell.
Antonya Cooper's son Hamish had been diagnosed with neuroblastoma in 1979 and had stage 4 cancer when he died in December 1981 following 16 months of "horrendous treatment you wouldn't put a dog through".
Police began an investigation last week after Antonya, 77, spoke in a BBC interview of helping her son to die.
