Baby at centre of court battle to be taken off life support
The decision to switch off baby RB’s life support “in his best interests” was sanctioned by a high court judge yesterday after the boy’s father withdrew his objections.
The one-year-old boy’s estranged parents, who were praised by Mr Justice McFarlane for their unstinting daily commitment to their baby at his hospital bedside, said in a joint statement that the father’s decision to drop his case had been “an agonisingly difficult decision”.
