LovelyBath I listened to that on Radio 4 in the car and they played an audio of the girl having a seizure - gut wrenching... cannot imagine what her mother goes through...

Thank you wee witch exactly what I meant, and also FISHS point too. I apologise I didn't write it more eloquently. Flowers

a false petition will not help either, because by all accounts most of it is fake by people that have not signed it.

Even if it was genuine, it wouldn't help. The judge will make his decision based on the evidence presented in court and nothing else.

I know not all the people posting on CA are British, but I'm beginning to think a compulsory course on the British constitution and citizenship wouldn't go amiss in schools. There's such a level of ignorance, not just in this instance about how the judiciary works, but also at other times about the electoral system and how government works. Even if it means taking fewer exams to fit it in, or make it a core GCSE subject. We only took eight O Levels and three A Levels when I was at school.

I am surprised none of the American cranks have managed a protest at the British embassy. Unlike the UK they are many well established 'pro-life' groups prepared to protest

AlabamaShakes, I honestly think the amry will stopp to any lengths!! itll be another crackpot, even if the congress men did, it wouldnt make an ounce of difference, our country, our rules, absolutely sod all to do with the Americans.

LetsGoFlyAKiteee · 12/07/2017 21:34

DorotheaBeale that's why I don't get it. The judge won't even look at it. It's not evidence,nothing to add to the case and just says hospitals are murderers throughout the description.

That and as said a lot of the addresses have been added on without the person. Probably not hard to guess a address you'll get lucky sooner or later.

Just probably makes them feel their important and if anything was to go the other way then they've played a part in it cause they've signed..and if not then the judge be slated for not seeing how many people care blah blah blah..

Duno why trying to find logic in things they do..

muckypup73 · 12/07/2017 21:36

LovelyBath77, see that woman is absolutely admirable, shes doing whats right for her daughter, not whats right for her as a mum, that is just amazing and I say amazing because that takes a lot of courage, I hope she gets what she needs.

Sostenueto · 12/07/2017 21:37

Laughable that Americans can overrule our justice system.

PunnetSquare, see, I wish people could see thisperspective,all the perspectives from all the threads, you can give your wants, and charlie cant and that is an absolute crying shame.

TheWeeWitch · 12/07/2017 21:41

Anyone been over to YouTube? Who was it that said there'd be a song sometime?

muckypup73 · 12/07/2017 21:42

Can you just imagine? being born into this world and having a machine breathing for you? a tube stuck down your throat? not being able to hear? or see? or being able to cry or shout or scream out in pain?? and the rest of the symptoms,can you imagine being stuck like that and thinking you could live the rest of your life like this?

muckypup73 · 12/07/2017 21:43

TheWeeWitch, that was me and I got slated for it!!!! lmao thanks for sharing lol

totallyliterally · 12/07/2017 21:43

From the very poor turnouts at any of the rally's and even the 'march' outside GOSH I really think the majority of CA are just talk. Sure it's easy to do.

It's lovely to see on here how many people have messaged GOSH. I did from the thread about it, not initially but then though hang on. If I'm typing here my disgust of CA and support of GOSH that is pointless.

It is good to hear that the staff are aware of the support.

I hope tomorrow brings peace for Charlie, I don't very sadly think that is possible for the parents at this time. They are down the rabbit hole too deep with people taken over their thoughts and actions.

But I hope in time they can understand it is the right thing for their child.

I think once CA see that actually there is fuck all they can do as thankfully we have courts and judges (who are not perfect, that doesn't exist anywhere) but in this case they have done everything in a compassionate and by the law way. They will carry on shouting and bad mouthing people but then there is nothing for them to do and will fade away and hopefully yr family will also get peace

sodablackcurrant · 12/07/2017 21:44

Why not wait until the judgment now and go to bed or do something productive?

Nothing we say will change the judge's decision.

UrsulaPandress · 12/07/2017 21:45

When Charlie is at peace the army will fade away. Thankfully.

GriefLeavesItsMark · 12/07/2017 21:45

Apparently 'the great Ormond tribe of trolls have also made threats to Charlie's army and members of Charlie's family' .

And people are openly bragging that they have signed a 'save Charlie' petition from more than one email address.

muckypup73 · 12/07/2017 21:49

GriefLeavesItsMark, I think thats probably because a Gosh supported had a message threatening her and posted so, so it looks like they are trying to turn it around and say its thembeing threatened, sorry how low can you go?????

muckypup73 · 12/07/2017 21:49

And I will belive it when I see the evidence, they are cutching at straws now.

muckypup73 · 12/07/2017 21:50

Edsheeranalbumparty · 12/07/2017 21:52

What's the beef with CA and this other FB group 'Charlies Angels'?

The thing is once Charlie is gone, CA will get back to their lives and forget all about him. Connie and Chris will have to deal with the events of their sons final days for the rest of the their lives. It didn't have to be this way.

sodablackcurrant · 12/07/2017 21:55

Goes to show that so called social media is the pits.

So glad I never signed up for the shite that it all is really. Sounds very odd to me.

But it is what it is, and there is no going back. But I will resist!

But then again mnet could be considered SM, but it is a bit different maybe.

Nquartz · 12/07/2017 21:57

Soda I agree, I definitely need to go to sleep but my mind is going round & round thinking about what will happen tomorrow.

I think I'm going to bow out now & catch up in the morning.
