Thank you for explaining this in layman's terms. I had read about this case when he was first diagnosed. The Hospital also understood this treatment early on but the news agencies fail to make that known other than an occasional footnote..... ......Unfortunately the parents do change and sometimes don't seem to understand, or don't want to, when they are informed.....all this attention has not helped the parents. In a TV interview the mother said there was a chance her son could be a ‘normal’ little boy...but of course that will never be so.
We were so grateful when my family members wife finally came to her senses....her son finally got through to her. It was not drawn out as with Charlie....only a couple weeks....but difficult seeing my brother 'suffer more from the treatment' he should not have had to endure. Charlie unfortunately is not going get better from his illness...I think of the parents in another case who would not let her 'dead' girl go.....her dead body is in an apartment with her mother now as the medical facility, who took her after all the legal ruckus, would not continue to sustain a dead body.... I will spare you the details of the room she is kept in and the entire atmosphere. Thank you again....and may God take this young child home soon....that is my prayer.
I am quite aware of that case, and on occasion, try to find if there is any new development there. There has not been any news for at least a year. For all we know, the heart finally stopped beating and the family buried her quietly...
