BBC report here

Very scary for the future for our children... I've often thought that, however much we have to battle now, the provision for our children is far better than what is available for adults. Let's hope it gets better.

Very very scary, especially when we live in the area covered by Sutton and Merton PCT. Hopefully things can only improve.

These cases are truely shocking. The doctors are not much different to the Nazis who gased disabled people.

Emma Kemp's case made me cry. That poor woman must have suffered hellishly before she died. Surely her life was as precious as anyone's else's. I hope that the doctors who refused to treat her are stuck off.

It must be really frightening the prospect of getting old if you have a severely disabled child.
