Steve Hewlett: How do you live every day as if it's your last? - a podcast by BBC Radio 4

In 2016 Steve Hewlett, presenter of Radio 4's The Media Show, was diagnosed as having cancer of the oesophagus, and has been telling us about his treatment.

Steve has had to continue his stay in the Royal Marsden Hospital in London, so Eddie Mair went to visit him again.

Last week, he told us how some of his options were no longer there. No more drugs trials, no more chemo: his liver was in a state that would not allow any of that.

During their conversation this week, Steve told Eddie about the options for palliative care and what living every day as if it's your last, means to him.
