Mario Barravecchia, former candidate for season 1 of the TF1 telecrochet “Star Academy” spoke to Jean-Marc Morandini, on CNews, about his decision to help his dad die. “It is a very delicate question, a dilemma, to respond favorably or not to one's own father who asks to die because he refuses to waste away, to suffer, to become a vegetable,” he says.
The young man first wanted to recall what it is like to suffer from Charcot disease, an incurable neurodegenerative disease.
