anything to rest, Rehm has now taken a falsehood from the fringes of the Internet and moved it into the mainstream conversation." Right-to-die advocacy Following the 2014 death of her husband—who was unable to get physician assisted suicide drugs due to their illegality in Maryland—Rehm became an advocate for right to die. NPR's ombudsman deemed that her related fundraising for Compassion & Choices violated the NPR ethical standards, and she agreed to stop attending fundraising dinners. In February 2020 she published a book containing 40 interviews with people involved in and holding different views on questions related to the end-of-life care and the right-to-die movement. Titled When My Time Comes: Conversations About Whether Those Who Are Dying Should Have the Right to Determine When Life Should End, its foreword was contributed by John Grisham. She is also collaborating with Joe Fab on a documentary with the same title that is scheduled to be released in 2021.
