Heartbreaking story from a friend of someone you might recognize.
"Our lives are not our own. From womb to tomb, we are bound to others. Past and present. And by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future."

That is so sad, a truly tragic life.

I lost my spouse to a different liver disease a number of years ago.  We pulled her out of hepatic encephalopathy a couple of times.  In retrospect, if she (and I) had known what was going to eventually happen to her body and mind I'm sure she wouldn't have wanted us to do that and would have wished instead to have been allowed to go into a coma and die.
