Award-Winning NPR Host Diane Rehm Explores Medical Aid In Dying In New PBS Film

Legendary NPR talk show host Diane Rehm is on a mission, inspired by the death of her husband John after 54 years of marriage. In 2014, he was denied medical aid in dying during his final days battling Parkinson’s disease. Since then, Rehm has become an advocate of expanding access to medical aid in dying, and she explores the topic in the new PBS film, “When My Time Comes.” Valley Edition Host Kathleen Schock spoke with Rehm about the project, her husband and their love story.
