Finish Strong Book Cover

Welcome, and thank you for your interest in Finish Strong: Putting Your Priorities First at Life’s End, Second Edition.

Finish Strong is for you, the healthcare consumer. It covers the tough issues around aging and dying other books shy away from. It also reflects my passionate conviction that individuals can be empowered to chart a course for themselves and loved ones that reduces suffering and reflects their personal values and beliefs. 

The second edition features valuable new material, including a new chapter called “Race and Culture Matter;” an Afterword by Kim Callinan, the President/CEO of Compassion & Choices; and a detailed index for the book.

I dearly hope its stories, commentary and tips will have a positive influence on your life and your healthcare choices.

All my best wishes,
