Well, I suppose that may be some small "mercy." But the other day a person in the know described bleeding cracked lips, convulsions, etc. I think we should not be too happily swayed by euphemisms.

You are right and I did not mean to imply that she would not experience suffering and a bad death despite sedation. I brought it up because heavy medication can hasten death I think the length of time they are stating it will take for her to die has been greatly overstated at 10 days to 2 weeks. Taking dehydration and medication into account, I think she has has far less time and any effective intervention will have to come soon. I pray it does.
