I previously wondered just what had finally caused Eluana Englaro to die, finally ending the heated controversy in Italy. Well, the official report is now in: she had cardiac arrest from dehydration. The complete text from the relatively short article below:
A preliminary autopsy on the woman at the center of a right-to-die case in Italy has found that the woman, Eluana Englaro, 38, died Monday of cardiac arrest because of dehydration, the ANSA news agency reported Wednesday. The autopsy appeared to rule out foul play in the death of Ms. Englaro, who died just days after her nutrition intake was reduced in line with a high court ruling in favor of her family and opposed by the Roman Catholic Church and Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. She had been on a feeding tube for 17 years after a car accident. The results of further tests are expected in the coming weeks, ANSA reported.
Well, that's it, I guess. She can finally move on (if there's anything to move on to), and the asshats who fought to keep her tied down here can suck some zucchinis.
