A terminally ill baby has died during the night after her life support was removed following a lengthy legal battle between her parents and the NHS.
In a statement released through Christian Concern, Mr Gregory took aim at the NHS and the legal system for taking away his daughter’s “body and dignity”.
The NHS and the Courts not only took away her chance to live a longer life, but they also took away Indi’s dignity to pass away in the family home where she belonged.
Indi, who had been born on 24 February, had to receive around-the-clock treatment for her condition, which prevented cells in the body from producing energy.
Last week, the Italian government had granted the infant citizenship to allow her to receive emergency treatment at the Bambino Gesu Paediatric Hospital in Rome.
Her parents had also failed to persuade the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France, to overturn the treatment decision.
The original article contains 433 words, the summary contains 156 words. Saved 64%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
The NHS and the Courts not only took away her chance to live a longer life
Ummm, i don’t think they did
they also took away Indi’s dignity to pass away in the family home where she belonged
Ok, i can understand this one a little. What was the plan though, move her and the whole hospital room that’s keeping her alive to the home, then switch it off?
This is the best summary I could come up with:

Then it goes to say…
Ummm, i don’t think they did

Whoa… I’m no doctor, but when I read
“condition, which prevented cells in the body from producing energy”
that doesn’t sound fixable. I do remember what ATP is and why its important.
