Unfortunately Welby can not die. Even if it is kept alive only by machinery and dall'accanimento therapeutic, even if you suffer a casino, even if you are waiting for his death, although he made clear the decision not to care and to be left to die, although he did not say you want to active euthanasia, but rather passive (ie not to be treated more and have an anti-pain that leaves die), in a court in Rome Piergiorgio can not and must not die. Welby should be treated, even if it does not want and even if it will continue its suffering.

In recent years Italy has presented the issue of euthanasia but it was different: it was often a third party (relatives, parents, husband / wife, son / a, etc.). To decide the life of terminal patients. Now with Welby the problem is different: it is the same patient in a clear and direct requests to be left to die, if possible in the most gentle and not suffering as possible.

I am other people the Catholic Church, in its stupidity claims not euthanasia. We are not asking the poor of syringes Welby or one of thousands of other similar cases with a poison (also because it threatens to make it suffer for 34 minutes as has happened in Florida for a person sentenced to death). Here are asked to suspend the medical care and to let the patient die under his request, and with anti-pain. Unfortunately, the Church is forgetting that the aggressive treatment is against their God that they claim to defend.

Moreover, as usual, in Italy the political rather than solve the problem and the lack of legislation (which is already a very serious), organizing committees and groups to "study this problem," a way to eat more money and Italian solve the problem, that is, he is left alone to solve (Welby not last forever, no?).

Maybe (and maybe the stress), between 10-15 years Italy fill this serious lack, even if I have my doubts over the presence of bishops, faux-experts, opinion leaders, religious, magistrates and judges who say what we need do and what we must do to a city terminal patients suffering even though they are well and not have these problems.
