Sick children are being discharged from NHS hospitals to die at home or in hospices on controversial death pathways.
Until now, end of life regime the Liverpool Care Pathway was thought to have involved only elderly and terminally-ill adults.
But the Mail can reveal the practice of withdrawing food and fluid by tube is being used on young patients as well as severely disabled newborn babies.

Full title: Now sick babies go on death pathway: Doctor's haunting testimony reveals how children are put on end-of-life plan
It was just a matter of time.
This practice will be rationalized, justified and then, normalized.
This is the future at the Dana Farber Institute.
Quick get this news to Danny Boyle. He’ll want to write all those happy english children celebrating the British health care system out of his next Olympic opening ceremony extravaganza.
tears in my eyes.
The government pretty much controls everything. They now can tell you when to die. Using doctors, of course. But it’s the government doing it.
Already here, but will get much worse under 0bamacare.
Try to tell any liberal this and they’ll disparagingly deny it.
They won’t deny it. They will justify it and tell you the baby wouldn’t want to live on a machine. Never mind that a feeding tube isn’t a machine.
ANYONE, and I do mean ANYONE who tells you dehydrating someone to death is humane and quick is a lying piece of crap! A Doctor who says this is a quick and painless path is NOTHING SHORT OF A INHUMAN PEICE OF CRAP THAT SHOULD BE DISEMBOWELLED AND FED THEIR OWN ENTRAILS.
This is a horriffically PAINFUL and TORTUROUS way to die!! Any doctor worth a damn knows this!! TO encourage a parent or anyone to pursue this path as ethical for their loved one, is nothing short of an animal.
NEVER EVER EVER BELIEVE ANYONE WHO TELLS YOU DEHYDRATION OR STARVATION ARE HUMANE! IF YOU DID THIS TO YOUR DOG YOU WOULD BE IN JAIL!!
So first it was old people. And no one came to help.
Now it is children. And no one came to help.
What happens when it becomes Jews, Christians, White males, etc? Who will help them?
Who has the ping list?
I feel your anger. Remember a few years back the demon of a husband wanted his wife denied of food and water so she would die and he could get on with his life with his girlfriend. We watched as people tried to save her. We watched her slow death via television. This world has become a place of vicious demons from hell. The depravity is always explained away but nonetheless depraved. Some say there is no hell. I disagree and it is waiting for those who condone murder and torture of the innocents.
Righto.
If we insist on killing the old, young and sick, we should at least have the courage and common decency to kill them in humane ways rather than kill them slowly and painfully so we can pretend we aren’t really killing them.
Those of us who are still living, are living Orwell’s nightmare — AND it is only going to get worse.
