The agony of the poor parents of this 17 month old child in Austin,Texas.The hospital wants to pull the plug but his mother went to court to stop them.He has been given 10 more days.. I think until the parents want to give up that the hospital should continue with his care..What do you think? This is a heartbreaking story.If you want the whole story click below http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,265106,00.html

Yes I think that this is completely wrong and the parents should have all rights to their sons life. It sounds really heartbreaking and I would surely protest about this that is dreadful I do hope that the parents will win this against the hospital.

This is hard to be honest I know the Parents do not want to let go but if there is no hope then surely it is better to let go, I really do not know what I would do in this situation I really don't I know I would not want to let go but also is the Baby suffering, if the Baby is suffering and there is no chance of the Baby ever being alive again then I would let go.

Yes I agree. I think they only time that the court should get involved is if two family parties are involved in a dispute over the decision not the hospital.

That's a good point..The poor mother of this child is pleading for her son's life...How awful that must be for her.
