The retired pathologist was sent to prison for up to 25 years in 1999 after he was convicted of murdering a man with Lou Gehrig’s disease. He’s scheduled to be paroled on June first after serving just over eight years, with time off for good behavior.
Kevorkian, who will turn 79 on Saturday, said he’s a little worried about his health. His attorney says Kevorkian suffers from diabetes, hepatitis C, high blood pressure, hardening of the arteries in his brain and vertigo, which causes him to lose his balance.
