Grace Sung Eun Lee’s wish has been granted.
A state appeals court ruled Friday in favor of the terminally ill Manhattan banker who has been locked in a legal battle with her parents over her decision to be taken off life support.
The 28-year-old Lee — who on Wednesday told the Daily News, “I want to die” — has been on life support since last month, unable to eat or breathe on her own.
The ruling clears the way for doctors at Long Island’s North Shore Hospital to disconnect Lee, who has an inoperable brain tumor.
But it remains unclear whether her devout parents, who believe she’ll go to hell if she pulls the plug, will give up their legal fight.
