Jack Kevorkian–The Doctor
The well-known doctor whose dauntless behaviors ended the lives of hundreds, believing to have relieved them of their pain, stands in history forever
Early Years
At a young age, Jack had a strong ambition of becoming a baseball announcer, a fun and untiring job for him. However, his disappointed parents prevailed upon the boy, and instead Dr. Kevorkian emerged from the University of Michigan Medical School, with a specialty in pathology, the study of corpses and tissue.

Early Career
Jack continued his path in pathology as a chief pathologist during his time in the Saratoga General Hospital. However, he soon left his post as a simple observer and commenced his actions and plans on the topic he became famous for: Assisted-Suicide.
Kevorkian became publicly active by assembling his own journals and articles, and established public speeches with significant influences. After numerous articles on the subject of "terminal human experimentation", Dr. Kevorkian was no long Dr. Kevorkian, but Dr. Death. |
Becoming "the doctor"
Jack Kevorkian started his career in 1990 as a special doctor who helps end the painful lives of unfortunate patients. Soon, he became almost every topic in a university class involving him and/or his passion.
A former student of UCLA recalls asking, "Is opposition to assisted suicide rooted in superstition, hysteria, and religious beliefs that God gives life so only God can take it away?" Doctor Kevorkian started a mental debate within everybody's brain, and a physical debate in the real word, only to end in jail. What do you say when Dr. Kevorkian asks you how you are? |

The End – imprisonment, illness, death
1999, Jack Kevorkian was sentenced to 8 years in prison for 2nd degree murder. When released in 2007 under a 2 year parole, he was also prohibited from discussing the topic of assisted suicide. However, this man that brought 130 lives to a realm of peace still set out to save those who are in need of ending their pain, but can not die.
Jack Kevorkian raised national awareness of the minor that are suffering, and he is a fighter.
