Baby Charlotte

[tigga]

Does anybody know any news on how little 'baby Chalotte' is doing ?. As always, once the news has had its viewers- we hear no more about it- I hope she is doing well

They said on the news tonight that she was only slightly injured, thank goodness.

[tigga]

The one that the court ruled against helping ?. If so, im glad to hear your reply and hope she pulls through, ta.

I'm sorry, I obviously was thinking of the baby who got shot today. I don't know how baby Charlotte is. Apologies, Tigga

[tigga]

What is it with the world these days ? another shot !. Baby charlotte is the girl who is nine months old and very ill, she has been on and off life support, the hospital want to give up and went to the high court for a ruling to say they could stop keeping her alive. Along with her parents i think they should not give up.

Yes, to be honest I think we'll only hear about it when she dies. If then even. And I think that's right. The family should now be given their chance to spend some quality time with their cherished daughter, without press intrusion. I'm sure they will tell their story when they are ready.

I agree absolutely with georgit79. It's none of our business. We don't know her. Leave the family in peace.

georgit79 and willow, I dont disagree at all with your comments but i wasnt exactly knocking on their door, just hoping somebody was going to tell me she's doing well against the odds and her chances of survival are inceasing or something. As for 'when' she dies, i really hope it doesnt come to that.

tigga, it's inevitable. This little girl wouldn't have survived for this long if it hadn't been for all the professional intervention thus far. She can't see, can't hear, has no idea what's going on around her and will never be able to breathe by herself. So I'm afraid it is very inevitable, and very sad. My heart goes out to her family and to any others in similar situations. I just can't imagine how awful it must be to have to 'play God' to the lives of your own children. And I know you only had her best interests at heart- I was just being realistic.

[tigga]

I know georgie but isnt it just a shame.

Thanks

I too would like to know how she is getting on as its a very upsetting topic, and I really feel for the family, but each day since I heard the story on the news I have prayed for the best for the family and baby Charlotte and so would like to know how shes doing.
