The baby cannot breath or eat on his own AND NEVER WILL. Everything they do is invasive and painful. Why would you subject a little baby to that? Why?
I understand that you don't see my point of view. Personally, I would not allow my child to suffer.
I would, however, do grievous bodily harm to any hospital administrator/bean counter who tried to make that decision for me, and if I was placed in the role of the hospital administrator, would refuse to make that decision for another family.
Hopefully, we're not too far apart on this...
