Wasn't this subject covered in one of the medical soaps quite recently? I didn't actually see it but a neighbour told me about it and said it was very moving. Not my idea of entertainment though.
The BBC hired a bungalow here in Molesey Surrey in our road during September last year for her home and used other houses in the area for the rest of the interiors,, They then went to Switzerland for the exteriors.
The cast were `catered ` for from buses parked in Hampton Court Station car park and they were bussed back to both the big family home and the small bungalow. The `tea shop` was also local and I think that by using real houses instead of studio sets, it gave the film a much more realistic and almost documentary style
