That was Eleanor Clift discussing her new book, "Two Weeks of Life," with CNN's Rachel Rosen yesterday at a book salon held by PR firm Dezenhall Resources.

Clift's book is a personal narrative examining the death of her husband Tom Brazaitis and Terry Schiavo, who died within days of Clift's husband and became a national news story because of Congress' involvement. Brazaitis was a Washington columnist for the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
