Quick Look
Then She Was Speechless
By Chana Calderon
What can children do when their mother asks them to help her die? Ruth, an extraordinary eighty-year-old with a PhD in the Arts, who has suffered a stroke that left her without the capacity to speak, read, or write, tries in vain to commit suicide.
Dumbstruck, her children realize that their mother's situation requires 24/7 supervision and they jointly decide to move her into the bosom of the family.
