An 85-year-old woman dies at a skilled nursing facility after several years of living with cancer. she had hoped to die at home, and felt ready and accepting, but her children (whom she didn't want to trouble) and her clinicians were dedicated to extending her life as long as possible. did the woman die in a way that respected her wishes?

well reading the excerpt i would say that No she did not die according to her wishes:

It says she wished to die as home but yet she still died at a skilled nursing facility so no they did not respect her wishes to die at home
