Last I checked, euthenasia was still illegal.
The girl isn't on life support. She is alive. The issue/debate regarding her condition was her parents decision to stunt her growth, keeping her smaller and able to be moved more easily, to provide a better quality of life ... and the issue of removing her uterus, which will prevent her from having to suffer menstruation and cramps.
It's an extraordinary case, requiring extraordinary measures. I wouldn't even presume to judge the parents in this case, but I feel they are making the decision most suited to give their daughter some quality of life.
They don't have the right or the authority to kill their daughter, that's not the issue.
