I heard this story on the BBC last night, including a long intervew with her father. This has been a huge cause celebre in Catholic Italy, naturally, where the law does not allow euthanasia.
I would very much recommend listening to the BBC broadcast here and especially to hear what her father says and how he says it:

Though the AP story compares this situation with that of Terry Schiavo there seems to be a fundamental difference - that in that case it was a fight between individual relatives, whereas here it is between the family and interest groups who are not personally connected to Eluana Englaro.
