Re: Parents lose battle to keep baby alive.
This is different to a terminally ill person isn't it? The baby was only being kept alive by a life support machine. If a terminally ill person was only being kept alive by a life support machine, then that can be turned off if the family wants it IIRC.

I think if a person who is terminally ill, but isn't being kept alive by a life support machine cannot die by they or the family saying so.
