The media like the BBC now has the name of the doctor in the US who offered to treat the infant and leading with Dr. Michio Hirano's involvement in the matter.
The judge will wait till July 25th to issue some verdict.
I hope that doctor didn't meet with any Russians/sarc.....
I’m on the fence on this one.
It on one hand is HIGHLY unlikely that this infant will ever have anything close to any sort of even low functioning existence. It’s also likely that he may be experiencing constant pain and torment.
Bottom line though is the choice IS NOT that of the state but rather absolutely and solely that of the parents.
I am not absolutely certain I agree with their choice but I am absolutely sure that the choice is there’s and there’s alone.
A ruling on the 25th...I guess that’s how they treat an urgent matter. I mean IF the treatment will help, the sooner the better. Sheesh.
This child’s life or death can be day by day but this SOB can postpone the God like ruling ten days later and still say,”NO,you will stay here”...to ultimately die. It’s a new world order of things.
Ain’t ‘Single Payer’ great??
I wonder who financed the doc’s trip.
Nice to have a judge determining your healthcare.
We’re going to wait another 11 days without treatment before the judge decides whether the parents are allowed to take their child away from a hospital that won’t treat the child to a doctor willing to treat the child? That makes sense . . . by big government leftist standards.
However,having been at Harvard Medical School for decades (as an administrator) I know of at least a half dozen pediatric hospitals in the US are recognized as being far superior...including Children's Hospital in Boston.
Send this child to the US...Boston,New York,Baltimore,Mayo Clinic,San Francisco.Don't let him die because British doctors and/or judges want to avoid having the US being seen as superior to Britain or because British politicians believe that letting him die is cheaper.
