This topic has a more standing issue.

No state or institution should have the right over parents and dictate that child's fate, especially if another institution, in another part of the world says they can provide some chance of success. I don't care how well respected GOSH is, they don't and should not have the right to end the childs life, against the parents wishes.

It's like on Friday, GOSH lawyers announcing in court the latest scan results, the parents should have had these results told to them in the hospital, not hearing such information in a legal proceeding, no wonder Charlie's dad shouted "Evil" at them and Charlie's mother storming out, this smacks if slyness and underhanded tactics, to try gain upperhand in a court setting, and it's like, to hell with communicating such findings with the parents in a compassionate manner, in the hospital, as it should be.
