Francesc Augé now has a date for his euthanasia: it will be on November 27

Francesc Augé, 56, will undergo euthanasia on November 27 after a lengthy legal battle. His father, who initially opposed the decision, has withdrawn from the process. Augé plans a farewell gathering with family and friends before the procedure, which will take place at a hospital in Vilafranca del Penedès. He has suffered significant health issues, including strokes and heart attacks, prompting his request for a dignified death. The legal journey began in 2024 when his right to euthanasia was recognized, but was delayed due to his father's opposition. The case was complicated by court rulings regarding family opposition to euthanasia requests. Augé's father, supported by a religious organization, initially contested the decision but has now stepped back, allowing the process to proceed.
