RE: Police Threaten Arrest If Citizens Speak Out Against the State-Sanctioned Death of Baby Alfie Evans

in #news7 years ago

I have to kind of agree with you , it's a first world problem . My Grandmother gave birth to 12 but only raised 10 . But that would be a total different discussion . It's normal for parents to do everything for there new born child , even if medical care declares the child as lost .
Point here is the way governments , insurance and judges seem to act like they own us .
In this case withholding loving parents from seeking alternative medical care . Who am i , or we to keep those people from following hope that a hospital in the Vatican bids . Even if it will not safe the child , parents will follow any spark of hope . It's not there fault modern technology can keep defected humans alive for a long time . It's not about a baby suffering from an incurable disease , the question is who are the government or laws to decide who lives or whom dies ?

Sort:  

they wanted to try an experimental treatment, so it may not have been incurable, people have had recoveries that have suprised doctors before

my guess is that is what they were thinking

Indeed , the incurable state of the child is in doubt as long as government and law keep the child from alternative treatments . the incurable state is in this case is put up on the child by local government and law , denying it from searching for a possible cure , witch might heal or not heal the child . On doing so government and law keep all of us from medical progression no matter if the child makes it alive or not .
I personally hope the best for the poor child and his parents .
