The Spanish media reported today that the father of a 23 year-old woman has challenged in court the approval of euthanasia for his daughter. An article published by ACI Prensa (google translated) reported that:
The Spanish courts are currently maintaining the suspension of the execution of a euthanasia procedure on a 23-year-old girl that was to be carried out on August 2, pending the intervention of higher authorities.
The father of the young woman, aged 23, urged the suspension of euthanasia because his daughter does not have the capacity to “make decisions freely, consciously and informed” due to “mental disorders, which include suicidal ideation, paranoid ideas and bipolar disorder” as reflected in the petition for precautionary measures.
ACI Prensa reported that:
The young woman, who lacks full mobility in her legs as a result of a suicide attempt in 2022, suffers from a “borderline personality disorder” as well as an “obsessive-compulsive” type of disorder.

The Spanish case is similar to the Calgary case of the father of the 27-year-old autistic woman who successfully challenged the planned euthanasia of his daughter.
