If you don’t believe me, ask the parents of Aflie Evans.

Alfie was born with a terminal illness.

The NHS chose not to try experimental treatments on him, on the grounds that they would make him suffer.

While one may argue the merits of the case, this is not the same as killing off the vulnerable just because they have a non-terminal condition that makes them less than perfect.

And, for the record, if an ad or anything else makes a woman uncomfortable with her decision to kill her child, I’m all for it. We need more ads that hit the conscience, not fewer.

You are technically wrong.

The Courts, not the NHS, made the decision and allowed the hospital to remove life-support.

Like all such very rare cases, a Court in England & Wales will carefully consider all arguments, in what is always an “impossible” situation.
