Space/Science » in reply to Astronaut Dies from Burn Injuries

Given the extent of her injuries,

death may have been a blessing. I've heard burn victims who say that skin grafts and other treatments are often more painful than the burns themselves. Given that she was burnt over 90% of her body, she would've faced many months of painful treatments followed by a lifetime of problems. I'm saddened by such a promising life cut short but glad she isn't suffering anymore.
