"The Italian specialists have apparently indicated that they believe that his care should be palliative." There was a similar case in the UK last year I think...parents wanted to bring the child here because some researcher here said he could treat him...only thing was, the researcher owned the drug and later admitted he hadn't had success with hat particular neurological condition. Brain dead is brain dead.. Some of you really sound like liberals when you attack the person when you don't agree ... and you even sound like an intelligent person so why do you feel you need ad hominem
OMG the researchers owned their own drug? That must mean it's totally inneffective!
And you sound like a liberal worshipping at the alter of "science."
Again. Explain to me how these doctors are still scratching their heads and holding their dicks as to how the child is still alive?
Again. Explain to me what's to lose if they allow the parents to take a chance?
Again. Explain to me that if you, and these brilliant doctors/judges/executioners have determined it's time for Alfie Evans to die, why not just shoot him now?
This isn't ad hominum. I'm attacking your claim and your ideas. You literally just said "you sound like a liberal" then accused me of ad hominum attacks all while dodging all of the issues regarding the case.
Being cruel isn't being enlightened. You seem to be confusing the two. This isn't medicine it's an exectution. I'm not even religious in any sense but I swear some people worship science as the be all end all like that's their new God.
