When they deal with their grief, they owe the hospital a massive apology.

Spent last 2 mths arguing with the world. Should have spent that precious time with their son. GOSH acted impeccably in face of adversity
-
The hospital, as always through the whole case, had the best interests/welfare/care of the baby as their no 1 priority.

Perhaps if they hadn't spent so much time in court with pointless litigation, they would have had far more time to spend with their son...

Blame the hospital and judge too, not just the parents.
-
Blame the joke of a doctor that lied to support his own ego and said he could save him not the hospital

To support his ego, line his pockets and publish ethically dubious data.

I feel for the hospital staff who have had their reputation dragged through the media and the courts all because they are the professionals
-
I feel for the parents who desperately tried to save their son after GOSH gave up on him
-
Are you a doctor? No. If you were, you would know this was never going to end well. Too many keyboard warriors with no medical understanding

I feel awful for them, truly, but they have to ellie him to go & the hospice is best place. The cost of care could be used to help other

Desperately ill babies. They do a great job. The neo natal nurses& Drs who saved my babies life still have my undying gratitude.

I was lucky. She had GBS Sepsis. They treated her quickly once she stopped breathing. Midwife should've spotted signs.
