It's quite likely that the upper house will vote on the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill later tonight.
We already know that a majority of Members have spoken in favour of the Bill, but there are still those who wish to amend it.
We're hopeful that the historic vote will happen some time between 9pm and 10pm tonight, but debate on amendments will likely continue until next Wednesday.
My thanks to all the supporters from Dying with Dignity NSW and Go Gentle Australia who again rallied outside Parliament House today, even in the pouring rain.
It's time we delivered compassion to people with a terminal illness, and it's time we delivered them a choice.
You can watch tonight's debate HERE.
