Parents have an aircraft standing by to take him to Italy. He's now been breathing on his own for almost 24 hours. This needs the judgement of Solomon.
Treatment may prolong his life, or it may fail to do that. What it certainly won't do is cure or reverse what his illness has already caused. Everyday a Dr in some corner of the world is 'astounded' by a patient's 'miraculous' recovery but I think it's fair to say that little Alfie will never sit his GCSEs, pass his driving test, or even execute the simplest of life...
A thawing of hostilities and a softening of tone. At last, a bit of common sense and humility. Just hope that the doctors and the parents can reach an agreement and young Alfie can spend his final days at home.
At last.......... Hopefully this child will have some dignity to not have his every move, facial expression, involuntary movement shared to the world via social media .
They certainly did Spath.
There's a piece in the DM by Jan Moir today where she explains:
"An MRI scan in February 2018 revealed his brain had deteriorated to the point where it was beyond recovery and ‘appearing almost identical to water and cerebrospinal fluid’. That is a stark and horrifying fact. The white matter of his tiny brain is almost all liquid."
How absolutely heartbreaking.
