The death of this girl who is called Noelia

We hear on the radio about Noelia's case, the girl who by the time these lines are read will have received euthanasia. They have spoken to us about it. We know her father opposes it with the support of Christian Lawyers. But the difference is that, a few days ago, she gave an interview on television. Then "Noelia's case" goes from being general to specific. The girl talks about her father. The father said: grandmagrandma was hell." The case is not "just" a paraplegic girl who wants to die. It's a girl who was raped and, as a reaction, tried to commit suicide without succeeding.

If she were my daughter, I would want her to live, but would I want her to live at the cost of her hatred for me for making her live? The fact that Noelia has spoken on TV, said grandma" and complained that her father doesn't call me makes me think that perhaps, just perhaps, there are things in life that she finds interesting. She hasn't spoken generally about the right to die; she has spoken, particularly, about her grandmother and her father. I wonder if wanting to die isn't part of a terrible illness that could be treated, but I also think that everyone has the right not to live if their body is a prison. Television, the interview she has given, moves me, because I can't stop thinking that the choice of euthanasia, in the society we live in today, is also, like other choices, a banal, hasty choice, opening Pandora's box which can no longer be closed. But I don't want to think about it, because I am in favor of a dignified death. But in general. The specific Noelia breaks my heart.
