From a purely logical point of view, I think I'm with Diss on this one.
We all imagine the horror of it taking her up to three weeks to die. And I can't imagine what it will be like for her parents to visit her in those final three week, But if she requires mechanical assistance to sustain her life, it's life support, yes?
