It sounds as if you believe the family is exploiting this in some way, and I am unclear what agenda you think is being advanced by them. I can find no comment by SDO (admittedly didn't spend a lot of time on it!) and can think of no reason Justice O'Connor would want this in the public eye.

if you mean it was cruel media use of an innocent comment by the son who was doing an interview, I totally agree, and it's exactly what I was referring to with my comment about who should feel embarrassed.

The family obviously understands the situation. ALzheimer's patients can develop attachments to many things. I have no idea why anyone would attribute something sinister, immoral, or meaningful to this- and I agree with your disappointment.
