Book Overview
"A cultural act of courage and moral clarity, A Promise Kept is an invitation to reimagine how we approach death-with compassion, honesty, and profound humanity."
- LA Tribune
When Erica met John Baccus, it was the beginning of a love story that would span 41 unforgettable years-full of laughter, devotion, adventure, and quiet moments that stitched their souls together. Erica was the outgoing wife that wanted to travel the world and John was the supportive husband that never told her no. So when John was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, and the choice came along, he asked Erica if she would help him end his life, and of course, her answer was yes.
In this deeply moving memoir, Erica Baccus invites readers into their intimate journey-through the beauty of their shared life, the heartbreak of decline, and the courageous choice John made to say goodbye on his own terms through assisted suicide.
A Promise Kept is more than a story of loss-it's a powerful testament to enduring love, dignity, and the strength it takes to honor a partner's final wish. With honesty and grace, Erica shows that even in the hardest moments, there is light, hope, and a different kind of happy ending.
This is their story.
