I spoke to Orla in April 2020 over Zoom.
She spoke to me from the hospice in the a suburb of Dublin where she had been residing.
We weren't able to meet face to face due to the Covid 19 restrictions.
And to this day I don't know what Orla looks like.
She had been campaigning for the Dying with Dignity Bill to be passed and today, by pure coincidence, the Bill has been re-submitted to the Government for consideration.
It was Orla's wish to release the podcast after her passing.
Below is an extract from a number of email exchanges that we had.
"As I mentioned, it was good to listen back to.
I feel the Social Fabric Podcast is a force for good in the world and am proud to have been a part of it.
And please share it after I've passed in a few more days time.
Orla "
Died 28th August 2020
May she Rest In Peace.
