Don't know if anyone else has started a new thread .

. Rest in peace lovely boy

RIP

So sad for the family but I'm glad poor wee Charlie is at peace now.

Ah. Poor baby. I hope it was calm and peaceful.

Sleep well Charlie.

RIP Charlie. xxx

Guardian newsflash

The parents of Charlie Gard have said their 11-month-old terminally ill son has died.

More to follow ...

"Why have they announced his death so quickly"

FFS, is there anything that the parents can do that doesn't get pounced on on this board?

Hopefully he is at peace now.

And even more importantly I hope the family can now step back from the media circus and come together and mourn properly.

So quick...

Hope they can find some peace

RIP Charlie.

Thoughts are with Connie and Chris

Oh, bless him. RIP sweetie.

Charlie has died. RIP x

for me, the pain issue is paramount. pain with potential for a 'cure' - OK, possibly worth pursuing depending on how much pain and how much the cure would actually deliver. pain with no prospect of meaningful quality of life? seems pointless and cruel to me. I know there are arguments about quality of life actually means, but for me - or my child - it would mean above all the ability to express what we feel. And if at any stage what my child felt in a situation like Charlie's would be paramount. as it is, Charlie cant express anything, and I wish the court judgment had been passed much, much earlier.

sorry x post rip x

Bless Charlie...6pm news says he died..hope it was a peaceful passing.Little man's spirit is free now ..

The telegraph news alert is misleading as it makes it sound Chris and Connie mentioned Final Wish in the sad news statement when they did not.

I think that what Hirani meant was that he could feel pain (from nail bed pressure) not that he was in pain. GOSH had started Charlie on morphine so I think that they would have had it under control.

Just heard it on the radio news. So sad. RIP Charlie.

Little fella, so relieved but so sad too.

Apparently he went to the hospice yesterday.

So sad. Poor Charlie. May his parents find some peace in the future.

I can imagine that the hospice would have been wonderful and hopefully a great comfort to them. Poor Connie and Chris
