The Violence of Living
A Memoir on Dying and Wild Dogs
My memoir tells the story of how my wife Mary Klein changed the law in the nation's capital about the rights of the terminally ill to take medications to die peacefully. It also is a love story and a narrative about how two ferocious dogs enabled me to heal from grief.
