A husband and wife are gravely ill. Rather than living in pain,
they choose to end their lives, and they turn to their son for
help. Despite the legal risks and emotional turmoil it is sure to
cause him, he agrees--and ultimately performs an act of love more
difficult than any other. The Last Goodnights provides a unique and
unflinching look deep inside the reality of one of the most
galvanizing issues of our time: assisted suicide. Told with bare
honesty, John West's account of the deaths of two brave people is
both gritty and loving, frightening and illuminating. It also
offers a powerful testament to the act of death by choice, and
reveals all the reasons why end-of-life issues are far too personal
for government intrusion. Intimately told, The Last Goodnights
points out the unnecessary pain and suffering that are often forced
upon dying people and their families, and honors the choice to live
or die with purpose and dignity. In the end, this story is not just
about death--it is also about love, courage, and autonomy.
