To me, it's an act of love. I work with the elderly all the time and know the concerns of those who are no longer able to care for themselves. Put yourself in their place.

I was considering the potentiality of murder being involved. I thought there was still some speculation. Sorry if there was not.

I suppose it's possible but considering his statements to others about his own failing health, I read into that statement that his actions were out of concern, not malice, toward his wife and himself.
