Marieke Vervoort didn't want to die, but she had been preparing for it for a long time. "I have experienced things that most people can only dream of," she said determined in the face of compassion when someone lamented the misfortune of the progressive tetraplegia that paralyzed her lower half of the body and left her in a wheelchair since she was 20 years old. . The Belgian Paralympic sportswoman remembered a history full of national and European records, World Cup victories and four big metals: gold and silver in the 100 and 200 meters of the London 2012 Games, and bronze and silver in the 100 and 400 of Rio 2016, your final goodbye to the competition. On Tuesday, the City Council of his hometown, Diest, announced his death at 40 years of age after abandoning the treatment he received in a hospital and undergoing euthanasia.
I find it very sad that when she was diagnosed with the disease she was 14 years old, she was a very active girl, she liked the sport a lot and she had all her life ahead of her as i was the champion she was until at twenty that she was paralyzed from the waist down which didn't stop her from continuing to compete but gradually she lost the will to live. And that's when he decided to end his life no less hard it may be. He spent half his life in hospitals and the other half suffering by postponing the most difficult decision of his life until he reached a point where he could no longer. If I was in his place, I'd have done the same.
I am very sorry that there are these diseases, and more than with only 14 years you know that you can not do anything to cure yourself, since there is no cure and that it will get worse. What I admire most about Marieke Vervoort is that she didn't give up and managed to win so many medals in the Paralympic games. In 2008, she signed the undated euthanasia papers, she said that at the moment in which the bad days won the good ones she would use it, since this disease caused her many pains, she hardly slept, in addition to this she adds that He had epilepsy and had seizures. I think he is a very brave person because despite everything he had, he knew what he wanted and at what time he was going to stop suffering.
I find it sad that a girl of only 14 years and has been diagnosed with a disease that can change her hair and that this athlete, and that she enjoyed the sport in addition to having a life ahead to grow sportively. when I was paralyzed from the waist down, it did not prevent me from continuing to compete sportively, as time went by I was losing my willpower. I finally decide to end his life because he spent most of his life in the hospital and also for the suffering of pain until he made the final decision to end his life
