I don't remamber where I have heard about sponsors threatening to withdraw support but I think it was to do with catholics being upset after Pope got involved.
As far as I can see, the only reference to GOSH losing any funding is that it will lose 10% of its research budget by 2020, due to Brexit, unless alternative revenue sources can be found. GOSH has received £25 million in EU funding since 2010. It has 44 active EU-funded research projects, with six at clinical trial stage for new treatments.
GOSH's day-to-day running costs are funded by the NHS, but it also raises £90 million a year for research, equipment, patient support and other projects. Unfortunately, I can't cite a source for this, but it's estimated that tuppence ha'penny of this sum comes from the kind of fuckwits who join internet mobs and defame doctors.
I'm speculating..why else are they prolonging it?? If Charlie is in pain as they claim then it's just inhumane. If they aren't sure they should let the parents make the decisions.
You don't respond to anything anyone else has written about the likelihood of his pain, or appear to have read or understood anything medical professionals have said. You're speculating? You think it might be inhumane to prolong this?
Why do you think this came to court? What goes through your head?
But, hey: if you and the rest of your witless army don't personally feel convinced by the multiple medical sources and court cases, then let's work on the assumption a small non-communicative non-mobile terminally-ill infant isn't in pain, because that suits our narrative better. That's obviously the reasonable approach. Let's steam ahead and congratulate ourselves on how fucking heroic we are. As CA keep asking, what's the loss?
And
seems so inadequate to the parents who are sharing their stories here, but I don't know what else to say. What you have been through, and your willingness to share it amidst such an upsetting debate, is beyond words. I'm so sorry.
