Starvation and dehydration over a period of 14 days is not dying with dignity.

And it is not "death with dignity" to have armed police officers inside and outside your room and hospice while you are agonizingly dying this way.

Death with dignity would have been to leave her to the care of her parents, with the feeding tube in place. One day, she would begin to reject the nutrition, would start throwing up, then body systems would decline and the last breath would come in it own time, with her loving family and her priest around her bedside. No police, no strangers. That would have been "death with dignity."

But bigamist ghoul Michael saw to it that was denied her.
