Cracking idea. Interesting to consider the comparison between the mass hysteria that followed one death, and even raised its ugly head a decade later, and the reaction to another death. Sure, early steps in rehumanising people with HIV/AIDS was a very good thing, and any effective reduction in landmines littering the planet is a good thing too, and for any children to be deprived of a parent is always a sad event that's likely not to be in their interest. But there's a big difference between posing bikini-clad for long lense paparazzi shots on a yacht in Monte Carlo and being in training for yet another fundraising triathlon or marathon performance in spite of terminal cancer. Jane Tomlinson fought the good fight, and then some.
