But W.V. believes his daughter “is vulnerable and is not competent to make the decision to take her own life,” according to Feasby’s summary of the father’s position.

“He says that she is generally healthy and believes that her physical symptoms, to the extent that she has any, result from undiagnosed psychological conditions.”

Her only known diagnoses described in court earlier this month are autism and ADHD.

    Holy shit is that is a very bad take!

    You don’t know a thing about this guy. And to put all her pain on him without knowing shit about either of them is completely out of line.

    And it is possible to be surrounded by love and still have a void that cannot be filled. Just knowing you’re “different” can be a mind job in and of itself. But making this all about the dad diminishes her feelings, her pain, her guilt.

      Except yes I totally can make it about them because having a support network that produces negative results is why this sort of thing happens.
