The critically ill infant at the centre of a legal battle over whether he would be allowed to seek experimental legal care in the United State or forced to die in a British hospital has passed away, his parents revealed Friday evening.
The parents of baby Charlie Gard are spending their “last precious moments” with their son after ending a long and hard-fought battle to bring him to the U.S. or the Vatican for treatment.
The parents of baby Charlie Gard have withdrawn their legal bid to bring their son to the United States for treatment, slamming doctors and the courts for “time wasted”.
Protesters who want critically ill British baby Charlie Gard to receive an experimental treatment are planning a rally and prayer vigil and hospital officials say they have received death threats in the heartbreaking case.
The Gard family’s spokesman Alasdair Seton-Marsden has said ill baby Charlie is “effectively being taken prisoner by the NHS and by the State”.
A ruling on whether the parents of baby Charlie Gard can be taken to the United States for treatment is expected in ten days, after a newly revealed specialist from the United States has examined him.
