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.
That's the saddest one I've ever seen
Police: Protect and serve
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 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.
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. Absolute tragedy and so wrong that the government gets involved in things like this.
I don't think artificially prolonging his life is what is best in cases like this. I know I wouldn't want my family living in a space between life and death on my behalf. I would want them to go on and live their lives and not dwelling on sad things like an illness that isn't currently curable.
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.
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.
Sad all the way around..
Martha!
I know its for dramatic effect but that beep!
I think this is also the doctor's fault too not letting the family say goodbye to their son sooner instead of false hopes that he will come back because she is thinking like a new mom and not as a doctor
😢so sad 😞
How dare they? It was hard to finish watching this.
As a non-UK citizen is this kind of thing accurate? If so then there is a few cracks in the "Universal Health System" that people who have it seem to actively ignore.
I hate when you have no other way out of a situation and have to go with the government
ngl, even if the US could accept such patient and people were willing to help the family for free.... what an absolute waste of resources that could have gone to others
She thought they were gonna just let her transfer him?? 💀
You can’t shock asystole
