A · Give it to her
You gave her the dose. Her pain ended; your fear of being caught begins.
The Compassionate — You put a loved one's relief above the law and your own freedom.

You refused. She suffered to the end; you remained legally safe.
The Lawful — You do not cross the line of ending a life, even if the pain of watching is unbearable.
