I've just seen that the child's mother is actually pregnant with her second baby. Whatever must her state of health be with all this stress and anguish?
And ironically her name is Kate. What a contrast between the two women, one leaving hospital with a new Prince, and one suffering the agonies of having a terminally ill boy.

I also read that an Air Ambulance (paid for by some Christian charity) is standing by to rush the child to Italy if this afternoon's emergency hearing is successful. I'm sadly tempted to think they should just be allowed to go ahead. It will take the pressure off Alder Hey hospital, and afterwards at least the parents will feel they did all they could.
