A judge at the High Court in London
has denied the parents of Indi Gregory, an eight-month-old
English baby girl seriously ill with an incurable mitochondrial
disease and hospitalised at the Queen's Medical Centre in
Nottingham, the possibility of taking her to Italy to continue
to keep her alive through the support of machines and avoid her
being taken off life support according to the British doctors'
intention.
For Indi's case, the Vatican run Bambino Gesù children's
hospital in Rome had come forward and offered to assist her, as
it had done in the past for two other British children, but in
that case, too, British justice had said 'no'.
The girl's parents voiced sorrow at the ruling.
