Joanne Tubbs Kelly is the author of Walking Him Home: Helping My Husband Die with Dignity. It is the kind of book, from the viewpoint of a spouse, she wish she'd found on a bookshelf when her husband, Alan, chose Medical Aid in Dying (MAID). When Alan was diagnosed with a rare, fatal, neurogenerative disease (MSA) he was clear he wanted the ability to end his suffering using Colorado’s Medical Aid in Dying Act. Joanne faced what for her was an impossible choice; to support Alan in his desire to maintain control over the end of his life or to do all in her power to keep him alive for as long as she could. Told with honesty, humor, and love, Joanne's
journey challenges us all to revisit our values and beliefs about end-of-life decisions. More about Joanne at https://joannetubbskelly.com/.
