Breaking: Missing 5 Year Old Found

[ChillDoubt]

Just flashed up on Sky News app, family being questioned by Spanish police.

Prudie, if you watch the video I posted above the father explains why they took their son from the hospital.

[Mamyalynne]

Mr King said it all, my prayers are now with them as the authorities have moved in.

[mazie]

Sums up exactly the attitude I've experienced with the NHS.....Such ba$tards.. My way or No way... Poor parents, poor little lad

[naomi24]

And you believe him? He's trying to raise money for treatment? How, and as a fugitive, how quickly does he expect to raise the money and from where? Sorry, it doesn't wash.

[ChillDoubt]

Sounds like his parents have been dealt with in a shabby, dismissive manner by the consultants.
We are talking about a 5 year old boy, not someone who has had a good innings and must now face the inevitable, they're trying to do their best for him and give him every chance. Given the conflicting advice about the proton beam treatment of course they would wnat to give it a go.
Sadly, children in this country in the same situation are denied treatment/funding for possibly life saving treatment abroad yet we can *** away millions in aid to governments who have horrendous poverty but can maintain a space programme or a regime renowned for having sympathy with/for terrorists who would willingly attack this country.

Utterly disgraceful state of affairs.

Mine too Mamya... I hope the judgement brigade stop and think next time

[anneasquith]

i'll leave you all now to continue you're critique of this very sad situation.

[naomi24]

He didn't need to abduct his son - if he thought better treatment was available elsewhere he was perfectly at liberty to seek it.

[anneasquith]

Naomi..............I'm glad i don't live in you're life .

[ummmm]

He has connections in Spain, Naomi, why so negative?

[mazie]

Naomi with all due respect I would put money on the fact that you're not a parent ! (unbelievable) I'm out of this I can't deal with such cynicism

Well, I'm sorry, having seen the youtube video, my utter sympathy lies with the parents. I wasn't expecting the father to be so knowledgable and articulate. He clearly thinks he has the little boy's best interests at heart and can surely see for himself the improvement in him.
In my county there was a little boy in a similar situation and the parents got him to USA for proton beam therapy which actually saved his life, when the doctors here argued it wouldn't. My heart goes out to that family and I pray that it all ends well - what good is it that they have arrested the parents, why? They haven't done anything wrong, in fact it makes me angry. I have just experienced seeing bad medical practice when my poor Mum died in a hospital, and I'm convinced she would be alive today if it hadn't happened, so I can empathise with the parents.

[Mamyalynne]

Naomi, if he is lying about the amount of radiation they planned to pump into his son's head then the Hospital will have all the paperwork to prove it.

[ladybirder]

I would like to hear the hospital's side of the story.
One thing's for sure, he'll get the money now.

[Daffy6543]

I do believe him. He says in the video he was willing to sell his house to raise the funds but as the police have been called in he can no longer do that.

[Zacs-Master]

I too would like to here the hospital's side of the story.

[Mamyalynne]

My Husband's brain was pumped full of radiation to no avail - I'll leave this now.

[kvalidir]

Naomi you're an embarrassment to yourself, and I too am glad that nowhere in my world does such hateful and foolish cynicism exist.
If you bothered to actually listen to Mr King's vlog he said that discussions about treatments elsewhere were met with threats by the consultants, so what is a parent who has their child's best interests to do if they genuinely believe that the medical professionals are not acting in it? Would you just allow your child to go untreated if you had found a better option elsewhere? THAT is neglect.

[Ann]

Ah bless you Mamya - it must be upsetting for you x

[Mamyalynne]

Mainly because of the anniversary of his death yesterday - but I will cope, this family and this gorgeous boy are far more important.
