Baby Alfie
I feel this topic deserves it's own thread. The link is in the triggered thread to the story, but essentially, a baby is dying in Britain and his parents want to take him to Italy where he can be treated further. Italy has granted him citizenship and the Pope even has a helicopter all lined up to take him to a hospital in Italy except...the British government ruled against letting that happen and the doctors in Britain have been instructed to let the boy die because they feel it's pointless to go to Italy for treatment. The father has been keeping his boy alive by giving him mouth to mouth while the hospital did nothing.....................................................................................seriously WTF. Can anyone explain why they would do this to this family? If Italy is onboard, why not let him go, even it there is no chance? This seems shockingly cruel and heartless...can anyone explain why the hell this is happening?
