>The fall left her paralysed from the waist down, and she was suffering severe, chronic and incapacitating pain with no possibility of improvement, her medical reports show.
>Noelia, from Barcelona, Spain, died by euthanasia on Thursday evening, the care facility where she lived confirmed.
>It followed a long legal battle with her father, which ended with a ruling in her favour from the European Court of Human Rights.
>"I want to go now in peace and stop suffering, period," Noelia had told Spanish TV programme Y Ahora Sonsoles in her only interview, recorded at her maternal grandmother's house. Noelia said she had been "very clear" about her wish to die from the beginning.
>"None of my family is in favour of euthanasia. But what about all the pain I've suffered during all these years," she said.
>"The happiness of a father, a mother, or a sister cannot be more important than the life of a daughter."
>She said she "always felt alone" and "saw my world as very dark", even before requesting euthanasia. She added that she doesn't feel like "doing anything", has back and leg pain and said sleeping was "very difficult".
