John West: The Last Goodnights: Assisting My Parents with Their Suicide

When our pets are old and sick, we would end their suffer by putting them to sleep because it is the merciful thing to do. When your parents suffer from terminal illness and unbearable pain, what would you do? Should your parents have the rights to end their lives in dignity?

In this book, John West brings up the issues in a very personal way. He honesty shares his journey to assist his own parents with their sucidies. It is NOT an easy book to read, especially for someone like me who dealt with end of life issue with my own brother.
