When should futile medical treatment be stopped? When and how can death be hastened? How can each of us keep control of these decisions?
Knowing our rights to refuse treatment, and ways to bring death earlier if pain or distress cannot be alleviated, will spare us the frightening helplessness that can rob our last days of meaning and personal connection. Drs. Wanzer and Glenmullen clarify what patients should insist of their doctors, including the right to enough pain medication even if it shortens life. Everyone needs their wise and comforting advice.

Sidney Wanzer, M.D., is a nationally known authority on issues of death and dying, formerly with the Harvard University Health Services. Dr. Wanzer lives in Concord, Massachusetts. Joseph Glenmullen, M.D., on the faculty of Harvard Medical School, is the author of Prozac Backlash. Dr. Glenmullen lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
