once again, you are attributing things that a healthy person feels and does, in a state like she is in, the body shuts down, gradually and without pain.
you have to remember, that she was tube fed, liquid nourishment, nothing of susbtance for 15 some odd years, there are no hunger pains, she cannot feel any. Go back and read my previous post with a link on how starvation works on a damaged body. I agree, that there should be a better way, but this is not inhumane.
Also, given the current political climate and the furor this has caused, it will be a cold day in hell before patients are given access to euthanasia, whether or not you agree with it.
