'The tough topic of euthanasia is explored in "Soulmates' by Mike Resnick and Lezli Robyn. A night watchman named Gary has trouble living with the guilt of pulling the plug on his wife Kathy, left brain dead after an auto accident. He's on the verge of losing his job due to heavy drinking when he becomes acquainted with a troubleshooting robot he dubs Mose. This tale centers on those two characters' conversations concerning Gary's decision and Mose's job of repairing or terminating broken robots.'
