Sorry - but as a reasonably rational person it bemuses and annoys me that
this rabble feel they know better than some of the best medical practitioners on the
planet. I understand the parents' view - but rent-a-mob? Nah.

One mother whose child is in the hospital was pleading with the family not to set off the fire alarms because her child was due to have its operation today.

It must be anguish for Alfie's parents but abusing doctors, and medical staff are not doing them any good.

The folk outside Alder Hey are, by and large, twats.

Alfie's parents are clearly distressed and deluded. Even the doctors in Italy and Germany, who have assessed him, agree he is irreversibly brain damaged. He will never see, hear or speak and will spend his life in hospital.

The only difference is that, in Germany, after the business with Euthenasia in the 1930s and 40s under a certain government, the rules were changed to PREVENT the state from ignoring parental wishes. And Italy? It's a catholic state...say no more.

Italy are only offering palliative care which he can get in a local hospice. There is no further treatment.

Like I say. Their Catholics. They'll keep you alive whether or not you want to be.

Why can't the poor sod just stay in Liverpool, with his mum and dad, and just slip off?

"Theres a fully equipped air ambulance from Italy just waiting" to do what? Fly the poor kid across Europe to be fed through his nose forever.

There's something wrong with our species.

Don't know this story. What is the reason that they don't want to send him to Rome? Come to think of it why do the parents want him sent to Rome?


The parents want to fly him to Italy so he can lie, emaciated, in a sterile hospital bed, surrounded by strangers, until he dies.

Our courts think that's not a good idea.

There you have it.

protestors are pretty disgraceful bunch and need to have a look at themselves why or what they think they'll achieve. they will not change the minds of the doctors or the courts, just add distress to many people, most with nothing to do with the poor lad.

Agreed but I can understand why the parents have lost a sense of reality; the emotion of trying to do what you think is best for your child is overwhelming. The mob outside the hospital can't be forgiven though.

Parents should be sent down for child abuse

One nurse was on tv saying she had been called a murderer by one of these twats.

She was a theatre nurse...nothing to do with this poor little lad

What do they think they would do by breaking into a hospital?

Our society is full of morons

Yep, totally agree.

I totally understand the parents pain. My heart goes out to them.

But this fecking bunch of wankers can do one. I equally feel for the hospital who are being condemned by establishment twunts from the world over who's faux, self serving, altruism is so erosive.

Well it is though isn't it? Why would you willingly put a child through pain when experts are telling you there's no hope

Perhaps because they are desperate and have lost touch with reality in their desire to 'save' him. This instance is not child abuse.

Because you are overcome with sorrow and grief whilst clinging to the hope, whether real or not, that a miracle can happen.

That's not abuse- that is undying love which has clouded the reality of the situation. They cannot think clearly. That is why they are pursing every avenue.

Please, take time to think about this before you offer further response.
