TORONTO, April 9, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A two month-old child at Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children, described in the media as "dying," has defied doctor's predictions and continued to live after the removal of a respirator. The respirator was removed in the expectation that the child would stop breathing, and that her heart could then be harvested for transplant. Her parents have expressed their disappointment that another child who is being cared for at the hospital will now not receive their daughter's heart.

Kaylee Wallace was born with a condition called Joubert Syndrome, which causes a malformation of the part of the brain that that controls balance and coordination. Among the symptoms of Joubert Syndrome is an abnormal breathing pattern which means that Kaylee requires assistance breathing while she sleeps. But medical literature on the disorder does not describe it as a "terminal condition." Indeed, depending on the severity, some patients recover normal sleep patterns later in life.

He told the Globe and Mail that if he and his wife had known that their child suffered from this condition, they would have aborted.

Because of the Joubert's Syndrome, Kaylee suffers from apnea, a common sleep disorder, especially among adults. But Stephen Drake of Not Dead Yet points out, "Literally thousands of people with apnea in the U.S. and Canada use various devices to assist their breathing when sleeping."

Neither the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) nor the Joubert Syndrome Foundation describes Joubert's Syndrome as a "terminal condition." Moreover, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) said, "Although some infants have died of apnea, episodic apnea generally improves with age and may completely disappear."
Jason Wallace told media that apart from her difficulties during sleep, Kaylee is a "vibrant baby."

I hope this vibrant child never knows her parents were going to kill her in the womb if they had know of her sleep apnea, good thing they didn't consider she would need assistance going to the bathroom if they could manufacturer toilets that small or that she would need assistance eating and have to be feed and quite possibly burped as well.
Perhaps for the greater good this vibrant child should be adopted by a family who would love her even if she were to snore in her sleep as she grew up. And the parent's could donate their "brains" to science to try and answer the question, "Why are people so stupid?"
The parents aren't stupid. They're worse than that. They are cruel and heartless. That's why they were so eager to give away their daughter's heart--they don't have one of their own.
If CPS doesn't take the child away from them, we should pray that they wake up and repent.
If they feel that way about it, why don’t they donate of their own hearts.
That poor child, having evil parents like this.
I’m without words. People like that deserve to be punched.
Looks like they didn’t like the model they got...being defective and all. Maybe “Mommy” can open her legs and pop out another “better” baby.
Sick, just sick!!
****************
This is sickening. Poor baby!
********************
Apparently, they don't have hearts.
Praying that our Lord looks after this little one and keeps her in His care.

Parents Seeking Fourth-trimester Abortion.
There are no words for this really. Just sickening.
exactly. In their minds it’s buyers remorse.
Sick effers. That is the nicest thing I can say.
Probably the same reason they don't donate their halos. They obviously don't have any.

Jason Wallace and Crystal Vitelli, parents of two-month-old Kaylee, with their daughter last Friday at Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.
Sounds like the doctor is pushing for this too. I wonder if the socialized medicine has anything to do with it. Lots of money to be spent on this ONE baby. It would be better for the COMMON GOOD for that money to help maybe 10 other babies.
Coming to a neighborhood near you.
One can ask a legitimate question in this case.
Was the parent’s primary concern the risk of the child not surviving, or the cost for her to continue to defy her ailment?
Maybe, within that answer lies some portion of why majorities of Canadians support their socialized medicine.
“Jason Wallace and Crystal Vitelli, parents of two-month-old Kaylee,”
are they married???
