My dad had Lewy body dementia when he died and it was awful. I'm really sorry to hear that Stewart and his family had to deal with that.

That page talks about what to do if somebody with LBD is thinking about suicide. After seeing what that disease does, interfering with those plans seems inhumane to me.

I watched a parent die of LBD.

After that experience, I'd also be inclined to go with "let them" as the most-correct solution to that particular dilemma.
