Parents of a terminally ill baby lose UK legal battle to bring her home

A judge at Britain's high court has ruled that life support for a terminally ill 8-month-old baby should be withdrawn, despite efforts by the parents and the Italian government to transport her to Italy for further treatment. The judge stated that continuing with the treatment would not be in the child's best interests, based on medical evidence. The parents had hoped to take the baby to Italy, but the judge ruled it was too dangerous. This case is part of a series of similar cases in Britain involving the rights and responsibilities of parents and medical professionals.
