From the article, it appears she plans to kill herself.

Very sad story. However, I agree with her decision.
She is the one living in that pain-racked body, not me.

Whenever I feel the colors of mourning descend upon me, I’m constrained from my taking my own life because God hath decreed a canon ‘gainst self-slaughter.

To rephrase Hamlet, all the weary purposes of the world are fit and profitable to me.

She will eventually become a vegetable. She has chosen not to extend the machines that keep her alive. They don’t do much. It’s either choosing this way or doing it in secret one night with pills or other means without anyone knowing, then mom walks in on her body and wonders what she did wrong and why.

There will be a fullcourt press to legalize euthanasia.

the plans have been in the works for years, and like Canada it will be done by the courts or fiat by regulations.

it is about saving money, not about compassion.

There’s a post over at Hot Air about this, you could probably post that link if you wanted.

Very sad.
