yes, but there's no good reason why he shouldn't be allowed to be moved there other than that the NHS says so
That is simply untrue. My guess is that Tom Evans wants the tracheostomy and continued tube feeding so they can take him home and let his disease run its course

Watching your child die while you know he is starving/suffocating is not a decision that can be forced on a parent. It's not fair to call him irrational for wanting to avoid the situation they are currently in where the kid has gone for over 70 hours like this.

Since you are not the child's parent it's not surprising that you see all forms of palliative care as largely equivalent outcomes and not worth fighting over since you don't actually have to watch your child go through it.

The point is the state has no right to force a parent to accept their version of "dying with dignity" over his version because he is the one who has to watch it happen to his kid.

Of course it is. It's about what rights the state can take away from the parents of a terminally ill minor. Specifically the right to decide how to act in his best interest as they see fit.
