        O that's kind of them to allow the parents to spend time with the son who's been refused treatment and given a death sentence! 💔😢

        Charlie is terminally ill and would've already died months ago had it not been for Great Ormond Street hospital.

        It is not up to anyone but the parents what kind of care their son needs. If there's a chance in America let them have it.

        It actually isn't your call. It is between the parents, the boy and God. Doctors and courts have no right to this boy and shame on Britain.

        If his parents want to seek this treatment for THEIR child, using THEIR own resources, why should GOSH and the UK courts deny them that?

        "Being allowed!!!!" Ffs, who do you think you are? They are his parents & should spend every moment THEY choose to be with him. NOT you.

        They don't want to wait for anything. They raised over 1 million dollars to take their son to receive experimental treatment. You're sick.

        I know. And they should take their son & bring him to the US for that treatment. But the almighty state won't "allow" it.

        Not "nanny state." Tyrannical overlords is more fitting.

        It is so nice of the State and Hospital to "allow" parents to visit their own child.

        "being allowed"??? This is an outrage. The state should have no say here at all. None. Certainly has no right to sentence a baby to death.

        "Further treatment would 'continue to cause Charlie significant harm'". Is there something more harmful than death?

        Is that a known factor in the experimental treatment his parents sought?
