PHILADELPHIA - For days before Danieal Kelly died in a fetid, airless room — made stifling hot by a midsummer heat wave — the bedridden teenager begged for something to ***** until she could muster only one word: water.
Unable to help herself because of her cerebral palsy, she ****** away from malnutrition and maggot-infested bedsores that ate her flesh. She died alone on a putrid mattress in her ******'s home, the floor covered in *****. She was 14 but weighed just 42 pounds.
