"Charlie’s parents disagreed and were supported in this by Professor Hirano who provided written statements in support of his parent’s position to be used as evidence in the various court hearings. After the courts’ rulings in favour of GOSH, Hirano then stated that he had new evidence that had not been considered previously which led to the recent return to court. During this process, it transpired that Hirano had never physically assessed Charlie nor had he had sight of his medical records and investigations, including the second opinions of doctors from outside GOSH. It was also revealed that potentially he stood to gain financially from the use of NBT. "
This is something I pointed out but got the usual "you're not a parent, you won't understand" attitude. My not being a parent means I can see things a bit more objectively. Doesn't mean I don't care (I do feel really sorry for them) - but it does mean I can see how dragging this out has kept a child suffering and artificially alive longer than necessary.
