Re: Is it time to let Alfie go ?
The parents have been well served by the NHS they have been living in the hospital near their child.But what about the child ?
On the tv programme it showed its distress at having the tracheotomy tube cleaned and this has to be done 15 times a day .
I presume the parents have the means to take the child to Rome it would be best if the hospital let them .

He would be dead now but for the ventilator.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england...yside-43841547The Supreme Court has ruled for the second time that the life support should be turned off. The sooner the better, imo.

Re: Is it time to let Alfie go ?
The ECHR has refused the appeal...an ECHR spokesman said the family's application was "inadmissible".This nauseous charade must end soon.
If I were a believer I'd pray that this child would die peacefully in his sleep.
He is in a semi vegetative state.
I honestly think that many people don't even understand what that means.
He can't see, hear, swallow, breathe, he can't function in any meaningful way.
He is not aware...
Protesters tried to storm their way into the hospital... suppose they'd gained entry, what were they intending to do?
Rip out Alfie's tubes and carry him to an awaiting plane to Rome?
Drag out the dedicated doctors and execute them in public?
Join hands and chant around Alfie's cot and expect him to get out of bed and walk?

One can understand how the parents feel, but at some stage they have to let go. I do wonder that by now if they are relishing in the publicity and possibly financial gain.Everyone loose someone they love during a lifetime be it early or late in life, unfortunately these parents are thinking more of themselves and being selfish

We know now, when you leave a couple of quid on the plate each Sunday, a lot of the money must have been spent on this fight.
