Summary:
In March of '97, two brothers took a plane to Detroit to secretly meet Dr. Jack Kevorkian. One of the brothers had been a quadriplegic for the past twenty-four years, fully dependent on his ailing mother for all of his needs. He'd asked his younger brother to help him end his life and relieve the burdens on his family. This is the story of love and devotion to family and what it means to let someone go at all costs.
