Dr. Jack Kevorkian

Kevorkian should be revered as a living saint. He is forcing the medical community to recognize that death is part of living. None of us get out of here alive and some of us would like to be in charge of the event. Executive Director Dixon Arnett and the California Medical Board and their hysterical swipe at Kevorkian let California doctors know that they are next if they even attempt to speak out as bravely as Kevorkian. We will not be fooled. The folks with the hands on the till are in charge of the rules. May I suggest that those who would prohibit assisted suicide also arrest and prosecute the sellers of guns, cars, alcohol, cigarettes, fast food, etc. Face it! Death, that is. Death is not a failure but merely part of the process. MARY MELKONIAN Woodland Hills
