<\/p>\n
A woman who was living in a centre for vulnerable young people was brutally sexually assaulted back in 2022.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
Noelia Castillo Ramos was living in the centre when she was raped by a group of people.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
Following the incident, Ramos, from Barcelona, attempted to take her own life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
While she survived, she was left paralysed from the waist down after injuring her spine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
Her mental health continued to deteriorate and now she is set to die by assisted dying despite please from her family.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
After having suffered for many years, Ramos says that she just wants to ‘leave in peace’.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
She has been approved by the European Court of Human Rights and the Constitutional Court in Spain for euthanasia with her condition being described as ‘serious, chronic, and disabling’.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
Her father is among those who have appealed the decision, arguing that her mental health is affecting her ability to make an informed decision.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
The court, however, has dismissed his appeal and decided to go ahead with Ramos’ request.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
Her mother has said that while she does not agree with the decision, she will ‘always be by her side’. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
Ramos told local news: \u201cNone of my family is in favour of euthanasia. But I think, all the pain I\u2019ve suffered over the years\u2026 I just want to leave in peace now and stop suffering, period.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd a father\u2019s, or a mother\u2019s, or a sister\u2019s happiness doesn\u2019t have to come before a daughter\u2019s happiness or sadness of a daughter\u2019s life.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
