dehydration orvery thirsty #1 (permalink) Tue Apr 01, 2008 17:34 pm   dehydration orvery thirsty		  
Hi,
I wonder if someone here can help clarify what "died thirsty" means.

Does it mean someone died of dehydration because he found very little water to drink?
or
Does it mean someone was extremely thirsty?

Thanks!

Kitty
