UK judge asked to rule whether baby should live or die
A British High Court judge has begun the unenviable task of deciding whether a baby boy with an active brain locked inside an immobile body should live or die.
Doctors caring for the boy, who are backed by his mother, say he will lead a “miserable, sad and pitiful existence”, even if surgery allows him to be disconnected from his hospital ventilator and returned home to one of his estranged parents.
