Oh man they'll take the kid to Rome and it'll 'live' on life support for a while and then Brexit goes through and they'll be forced to move home and this will finally be the thing that fucks Theresa May over as morons care more about this idiot baby than actual poo poo that's happening now.

lol the RC church wouldn't do anything, especially not if there was some radical treatment involving stem cells.

The parents want to fly the baby to Rome literally so he can stay on life support, that's all. The hospital he's going to has already said that there is no treatment but they'll keep him 'alive'.

Only stem cells from aborted babies are bad. If the treatment doesn't involve those, it's fine by ol' Frankie.

I guess the idea is that while the child is hooked to all the tubes in Rome, parents can 'seek new forms of treatment'.

I stand by my flesh version of groverhaus post earlier even more in the context that sometimes human's brains will just outright fail to develop correctly and vaporize into nothing sometimes.

And this might be a hot take, but can't they try for a new baby?

...assuming that this one wasn't a super fluke and the rest of their potential children are not doomed to be brainless vegetation.

Or, if they found out that is case, just adopt a child?

you have no way of knowing this. suffering requires a consciousness to be present to experience it. lacking 80% of your brain is probably incompatible with being conscious as this is a state which requires most parts of the neocortex to be functional.

Speak for yourself.

I feel absolutely terrible for the parents. When this first started they even were saying "We know our son is going to die. We know it's terminal. But we just cant bear to lose him" and it was heartbreaking.

Instead of getting the help they needed a bunch of idiots on the internet formed Alfie's army and created a horrific echo chamber that persuaded the parents that there kid wasn't dying. That doctors "always get stuff wrong", that it's some conspiracy to kill of scousers/northerners/whatever the gently caress. And the parents desperate for hope have bought into it like I'm sure many people would.

The real villains here aint the parents, it's the Liverpool Echo for sensationalising this story (they've ran 5 separate articles today on Alfie at the time of writing) and the mob of potentially well meaning but toxic idiots who call themselves Alfie's Army.

Those parents should be with a Councillor somewhere, helping them prepare for whats going to come. Instead their boys going to die and they're going to spend their entire lives twisted with rage and spite over a hospital they've been warped to believe murdered their boy.

EDIT:

This is the sort of poo poo these people are sharing.



As far as I know the only bruises and blood on Alfie is where he's bitten or hurt himself during a seizure, but why let that get in the way of a good conspiracy.

Yeah Liverpool Play Roma in the Champions League Quarter Final in an hour and the Alfie's army brigade are out in full to try and force a Alfie Evans chant at 23 minutes into the game. They think that this'll somehow "force" Alder Hey to back down.

Alder Hey is a locally run charity children's hospital that is pretty drat close to a lot of peoples hearts. It's really getting pretty vicious here in Liverpool between the alfie army retards and people who know first hand what Alder Hey has done for loved ones.

How loving vicious do you have to be to try and argue that a charity childrens hospital is murdering kids?

The other thing thats running the rounds is this story about the hospital removing the sofa from Alfie's room.

The mob is arguing this is a deliberate action to stop the parents seeing their boy out of spite; rather than being due to the fact that people keep invading the hospital and the room is under 24/7 police guard.

On Doctor's being afraid of the mob and daring to wear scrubs outside the hospital:

Some Idiot posted:

Why wear scrubs?? A sympathy stunt by this hospital which has shown a diabolical hostility towards this disabled child.He stinks to high heaven that clinician and their corrupt lies.They are conspiring to lie using publicists and corrupt journo to try and make the public turn against a poorly child and his bereft parents.I wonder how they sleep at night..on pillows of money of course saved by killing the sick and disabled. The crying shame

On the hospital somehow being at fault for all this violence:

Some Slag posted:

The hospital should be thinking of the best interests of the other children in their care - They done what they set out to do with Alfie, they should allow transfer and focus on caring for the other children to avoid any further hostility. Hostility wont stop while Alfie suffers !

A massive crazy rant by some women who's googled how the brain works. This one gets copied and pasted a lot.

internet doctor posted:

For those of you that are trying to claim little Alfie Evan's is brain dead or without brain function essential to life. Let's look at the complexities of the brain, let's look at its functions and then let that be your determining factor on Tom and Kate's fight. It's such a bogus fabrication that this baby has no brain function. I will post the parts of the brain and its function. The medulla oblongata controls lungs, heart and blood pressure, it also contains th ne reflex center involved in vomiting, coughing, sneezing and swallowing. As we can all see in Alfie, this part of his brain is functioning, for those in doubt it was also documented in court, that the doctors have witnessed these actions and stated they are reflexes. What they failed to mention is that this part of the brain is still keeping his heart healthy, his blood pressure normal and aside from the ventilation interfering with his lungs, the brain is keeping his lungs working. Onto the pons, this part of the brain functions as a bridge between different parts of the brain, needed to send messages. It also controls sleep, consciousness, breathing, bladder control, hearing, equilibrium, taste swallowing, eye movement, and the secretion of saliva and tears. Now the doctors claim that this part of the brain must be destroyed as he has no hearing. Now if that's the true case, why does his bladder still function, as this part controls both hearing and bladder. Alfie doesn't have a catheter which means his brain is still able to send messages to his bladder, also it controls eye movement and all can see Alfie has many pictures and videos of his eyes open. He is still producing saliva, again a function of this part of the brain. Which leads me to believe that he can still hear another function of this brain part. The mid brain works together with medulla and pons, and build the brain stem, this consists of many parts and functions. The tectum, controls eye movement, auditory and visual reflexes and processing. The tegmentum controls reflexes, the cerebral peduncles influence voluntary motor functions. The substantia negra produces dopamine. The cerebellum controls the movement, balance and motor learning. The thalamus is the relay between the cerebral cortex and other parts of the brain, it is responsible for all senses, except smell and the neurons send the messages further into the brain to be processed. The hypothalamus controls the body's emotions, thirst, hunger and the bodys wake/sleep cycle. The crazy thing is it also controls the nervous system that controls the bodys inner organs. It controls the pituitary gland, which controls the hormones in the body, thyroid, growth and four others. That part of Alfies brain is still also functioning as he hasn't had organ failure and hes growing like a leaf. Now that means the lower brain is working, the midbrain is working which leaves the cerebrum and the diencephalon which build the forebrain, the cerbrum is the largest part of the brain, it consists of cerebral cortex, which has two hemispheres the right and left. The cortex is divided into four lobes, the frontal, the parietal, the occipital, and the temporal, these parts of the brain are almost impossible to determine if they are completely damaged while Alfie is sleeping, as it controls the higher functions of the brain, speech, attention, reasoning, language etc. Although the doctors have determined at least the temporal lobe must not be working as he cant feel the touch of his parents, that only the parents are aware. Yet they then contradict and say they aren't sure if he can feel pain, same part of the brain controls both of these. Deep within the cerebrum is the limbic system which is the amygdala, and hippocampus, these two parts control, emotions and memory. Again cant determine if they are functioning given Alfies age and sleep. So out of the five main parts of the brain cerebrum, cerebellum, limbic system, brain stem, and pituitary gland, only one can be called into question if it is truly functioning and that's the cerebrum. So why would it be okay to cut off life support, when the brain is still functioning. The only thing Alfie seems to need help with is oxygen. People can call it whatever they want, call it reflexes, but let me tell you something if his brain wasn't functioning, after a year and a half of oxygen, his other organs would be failing, his body temperature would be failing, he wouldn't be growing, he wouldnt be able to remove waste, he wouldnt open his eyes, his body would fail. Alfies brain is what has kept him alive this whole time. Oxygen doesn't keep your body alive, alone without the brains functions. A image cannot determine the complexities of a brain. I feel that with as much of his brain that is still alive and viable, that with the proper weaning, of medication and oxygen, Alfie will indeed wake up, even if his lungs are damaged from the amount of time he has been intubated, and he does become oxygen dependent,
