Aren't there other methods though? I don't understand why this particular one is the method of choice. Surely a lethal injection would cause a lot less suffering.

There are other methods such as overdosing her on a drug such as morphine, but i think that this would be considered murder by the state becasue it is not letting her die naturally as removing the feeding tube would, however horrible it may be it is still considered natural.
Actually a lethal injection would be a less painful way to die, it would only be quicker, but not less painful. Because what it does it to stop you blood carrying oxygen so it basically suffocates yuo from the inside. I heard that this takes abot 10 minutes- so actually removing the feeding tube and keeping her comfortable with painkillers is a better way to die.
