Today's Phila Inquirer, Health and Science section, cover story and photo, features Karl Ahlswede and his new professional endeavor.
This can also be viewed on Philly.com here, if I did things right.
Congratulations on some wonderful publicity.

Thanks for the post Eric.  I was very happy with the article for bringing attention to a very difficult topic.

All I saw was a short blurb.  Was there a longer article?

"Dr. Ahlswede" and his new career was a topic on the Michael Smercomish afternoon drive show on WPHT 1210.  I know Karl will help a lot of families prepare and persevere through the final transistion of life on earth.
