Charlie Gard (16) Future implications arising from case

[Puzzledandpissedoff]

If anyone wants to post, perhaps we could consider what implications today's case might have for others in future ... ?

I feel so sorry for JF now.

because parents wanted several days with Charlie at home on ventilator.

Oh God - I'm just gob smacked.

Do they have children's hospices? Might be an option, hospices do care at home? Not sure to that extent though.

This is all about the parents. What benefit would there be to Charlie? I bet the parents will be back in court wanting "a few more days" after this few more days... it's his birthday in about 10 days, isn't it?

I feel awful for the judge, he's having to set a time frame in which Charlie must die

Victoria Butler-Cole for Charlie's guardian: the family's new expert needs to speak to GOSH so that we know if there's a practical option.

It's certainly not a job I'd want to do TheFairy. All he can do is stay focused on what is in Charlie's best interests.

Ah sorry-

GOSH has taken enormous care to find hospice willing to take Charlie. Hospices can't provide medical care of the sort Charlie needs

And there's another new "expert".

thy cant fin a hposice to tak him to lovely

Mr Justice Francis..do what is best for Charlie..please.
MJF has bent over backwards to be helpful and kid-glovily sensitive to parent's needs.

There's a new expert.

Words fail.

I am in tears.

The cruelty of it.

So cruel to Charlie, so cruel to other sick children. So cruel to the staff who look after them day in and day out.

Which new expert would that be?

This is unbelievable.

If ever there were an advert for precisely why parental 'rights' must not trump the rights of a child, this is it.

Awful. Just awful.

Is there going to come a time when the 'but they're grieving parents' free pass stops, MNHQ, and we can actually start voicing opinions about their behaviour just as we would anyone else who has so relentlessly put themselves into the public eye?

This, I said this on the previous thread and got roundly attacked by someone. At what point does it stop?

New expert? On what exactly?

who is this expert thy keep mentioning

No hospice will take him Rozenburg said

No more experts! Good heavens!

Butler-Cole asks judge to set a deadline for discussions between the parties. Failure to agree would mean hospice only option.
