They made her as comfortable as possible till the day she died. People die with dignity in many ways. Suicide doesn't own the term dignity when it comes to dying.

Had she chosen suicide she would have missed out on the chance to say goodbye to friends and loved ones, getting her affairs in order and talking wth a pastor about what she wanted for a funeral.
