      So a child who died within minutes of life support being turned off was never in pain? My advice would be to go and read the full story before commenting..

        Desperate parents were persuaded that their child could be helped. Those parents understandably latched on to that hope and did what they believed was best for their baby. To suggest, within a few hours of his death, that they 'forced him to suffer' would appear to show a lack of both sympathy and empathy.

        Remember it was the hospital who applied for the latest hearing "in light of claims of new evidence".

        There are no winners in this tragic story. However, if anyone is 'responsible' for the prolonged suffering of the child, it is the purveyors of snake-oil that, without having examined him or even looked at the scans, wanted to use him as a human experiment.

          Do you know much about end of life management for children with life limiting conditions?

            So people(or countries) that take loans they can never afford to pay are blameless?

            Maybe people below a certain IQ should not be allowed a say in matters like this.
