La primera paciente con una enfermedad no terminal que se someterá a la eutanasia en Colombia será Martha Sepúlveda, una mujer de 51 años, nacida en el departamento de Antioquia, que desde hace casi tres años padece esclerosis lateral amiotrófica (ELA).
Sepúlveda tendrá la posibilidad de la muerte asistida después de que, en julio pasado, la Corte Constitucional de Colombia ampliara el acceso a la eutanasia para pacientes con enfermedades no terminales.
La condición que estableció la institución es que pueden acceder a este derecho las personas padezcan «un intenso sufrimiento físico o psíquico, proveniente de lesión corporal o enfermedad grave e incurable». A Martha Sepúlveda, su padecimiento le ha afectado tanto que apenas puede caminar, reseñó RT.
Sepúlveda solicitó la eutanasia el pasado 27 de julio, apenas cuatro días después de la sentencia de la Corte Constitucional. El 6 de agosto recibió la confirmación y la fecha del procedimiento lo fijó para el 10 de octubre.
«Estoy totalmente tranquila. Soy una persona católica, me considero muy creyente de Dios, pero, repito, Dios no me quiere ver sufrir a mí y yo creo que a nadie. Ningún padre quiere ver sufrir a sus hijos», dijo Sepúlveda, en declaraciones a Noticias Caracol.
Agregó que esto le permitirá acabar con el sufrimiento que le causa la enfermedad. «Uno con una esclerosis lateral en el estado que la tengo, ya lo mejor que me puede pasar es descansar. Y para mí la muerte es un descanso», explica.
Tema familiar y religioso
La mujer, que es católica, dice que el tema ha sido difícil con su madre, quien se opone a este proceso, y con la iglesia. «Mi mamá tiene 83 años, está muy lúcida, pero yo pienso que es por el tema religioso que ella piensa de esa forma», mencionó.
Entretanto, en la iglesia le han pedio que cuente por qué tomó esa decisión. «La respuesta es la misma: porque estoy sufriendo, porque creo en un Dios que no quiere verme así. De hecho, para mí esto lo está permitiendo Dios, así lo veo yo, si me quiere, no quiere verme en esta condición», enfatizó.
Sus 11 hermanos la acompañan en su decisión, al igual que su hijo Federico. «Yo lo miro como un acto de amor de él porque me dijo: ‘mami yo la apoyo’. No fue fácil, pero yo lo miro como que me ama tanto que no me quiere ver así», comentó la mujer.
Por su parte, su hijo manifestó: «Yo lo vi como el acto de amor más grande que he hecho nunca en mi vida, porque a priori yo necesito a mi mamá, la quiero conmigo, casi que en cualquier condición, pero sé que en sus palabras ya no vive, sobrevive. Ahora estoy enfocado en hacerla feliz, en hacerla reír, en recochar [pasar un rato de diversión y risas] un poco y en que su estancia en la Tierra, lo que le queda, sea un poco más amena».
Cifras de eutanasia en Colombia
En Colombia, el 72,5 % de las personas están a favor de la eutanasia, de acuerdo con la más reciente encuesta, de agosto de 2021, ‘Colombia Opina’ de Invamer, citada por DescLAB, el Laboratorio de Derechos Económicos, Sociales y Culturales.
La Corte Constitucional de Colombia despenalizó la eutanasia para pacientes con enfermedades terminales en 1997, pero apenas en 2015 fue reglamentada por el Gobierno.
Desde ese año, hasta marzo de 2021, según datos del Ministerio de Salud, se realizaron 123 procedimientos de eutanasia en toda Colombia.
