If she wanted to be euphemistic, she could have added the word "minor" (but she didn't) and then the heart-tugging "Dolly has given so much... it's time we give back" (again... these are END OF LIFE words and suggestions.)

WTF is wrong with her?? Is she looking for attention? Does she have some sort of Munchausen syndrome?
