I know how this feels. The hospital told us that if we didn't agree to take our daughter off life support, we would be barred from her side while she passed. It's horrible to have no alternatives.

I cannot imagine that. I cannot imagine having the government tell me what is best for my loved ones' health. Having the government decide for me what needs to be done seems more inhumane than "fair". Glad I live in a country where this "we the government know what's best for your health" thing like taking a person off life support and not allowing the person's family or the person to choose the course of action that they want to take isn't the norm.

This is an awful situation, but I agree with the court on this one. If the child has no chance of improving then prolonging his life is torture. I know the parents would suffer the decision, but as the investegator said its inhumane. Keeping the body alive when there is nothing left is wrong.

I believe this is a reflective situation of a case from years ago regarding a young infant named alfie evans whos parents fought to keep him alive due to a neurodegenrative disease but ultimately the government and legal teams made them remove care.

@TimberlakeTigerGirl Месяц назад

@@byronforster8920Because all the parents are doing is wasting the doctors time on a lost cause. Their son is brain dead; there's no way to revive someone after they are declared brain dead. And the longer the body is kept on life support, the more it'll start to decompose on its own albeit a lot slower than an actual dead person. But eventually the heart will stop beating on its own and after that it's game over. There is a long line of patients that need that bed and others that need the doctors attention. Those who can actually be saved should be given priority over those who are lost causes.

@jgibbs651 Месяц назад

Not an accurate, or fair, reflection of the UK law or hospital procedure. For openers, even if a High Court judge made an order, it would automatically be sent up to the Court of Appeal, and probably after that to the Supreme Court. There would be ZERO chance of the sort of scene at the end here with police forcibly restraining medical staff. Similarly, a child so unwell would not be being transferred with only a doctor and 1 nurse. Sloppy.

@@karenspoors771 the NHS is not private care. There is got to be a limit especially when health care through the NHS is free even with the most expensive, prolongued and major surgeries and treatments if the kid is brain dead and has not even a 1% chance of survival, there is no reason to keep this up it's worse for the kid but even parents themselves when covid hit there was not even enough beds or enough doctors for normal medical problems you couldn't even get blood tested even when you had cancer and needed constant screening and such because on top of that there were shortages of vials due to brexit yes, at some point there needs to be a stop by the law especially when you are getting the treatment for free (and it's a right for everyone even foreigners)

i do think that taking him off life support is probably the right decision given that there’s virtually no chance of recovery, but the government absolutely should not under any circumstance be given the power to make that decision. if parents decide to fight to save their child, regardless of whether anyone thinks they’re right or wrong, the state shouldn’t be able to step in and force them not to.

@HulklingsBoyfriend Месяц назад

So parents should be allowed to torture kids by keeping their corpses on support forever?

@TimberlakeTigerGirl Месяц назад

You are literally contradicting yourself. Since you acknowledge that the child was more or less dead, then it's better to let him pass away peacefully in his sleep. And if the parents aren't willing to let him go, someone has to make them. Once a person is brain dead, their body starts to deteriorate like a real dead body (albeit at a slower rate). Eventually all the organs will stop functioning and once the heart gives up, it's over. It's cruel and inhumane to force a child to endure that just because the parents can't let go.

@jamesongorman8531 Месяц назад

@@TimberlakeTigerGirl how am i contradicting myself? the state shouldn’t have the power to force parents to let their child die, regardless of the circumstances. they were told their child has a chance at making some recovery, whether the odds are 1 in 10 or 1 in a million their nature as parents shouldn’t be nullified at the discretion of a government organization. i stand by my opinion that it’s likely a better decision to let him go, but i also understand it’s not my decision to make, nor is it anyone else’s besides the parents.

@TimberlakeTigerGirl Месяц назад

@@jamesongorman8531 What you are doing is enabling something that should be considered a crime against humanity. They said his chances of reviving is over one in a billion. You are more likely to get hit by lightning several times than the possibility the kid can be revived. All they are doing is prolonging their own suffering and his own. And again, with a body that is basically brain dead, the body will deteriorate on its own. You can only keep a person alive on life support for so long until the organs start shutting down. And once the heart gives out, then it's game over. All that effort will be wasted for nothing. With those kind of odds, it's better and more merciful to let the child pass away peacefully in their sleep. Don't forget there's a long line of other sick children that need that bed, kids with better chances at survival. And doctors shouldn't have to waste time on one lost cause when they can be spending it saving so many others. We can't save everyone and if the parents aren't willing to do the right thing, then someone has to.

@NemuriNezumi94 11 дней назад

the state does have a right tho the nhs is public free healthcare, it is paying for all possible major minor short term or prolongued treatments if there is no chance of him ever waking up again there is no point in continuing the life suport otherwise they needed to go into private care but that's a whole other problem that more than probably could have not have afforded, even less in the UK
