I was going back and forth on if this could make a good case for 7DS but I decided it is the perfect case. While I don’t believe that Jack Kevorkian was a sinner or a saint, I believe he was a compassionate pioneer who was grappling with his own generational trauma in the face of the difficulty of being a doctor who has to watch people wither away and suffer - The crossroads of the death he knew as a child intersected with his profession and the unimaginable pain he had to walk his patients through on a daily basis until one day one of them just said Jack…. I’m done… I can’t do this anymore ….and Jack in his own weird way felt too much empathy not to oblige.
