Charlie Gard has died.

His death was likely inevitable, but it still ticks me off: between the Hospital and the Court, they COULD NOT figure out how to get him and a possible treatment in the same place at the same time.

His death was likely inevitable, but it still ticks me off: between the Hospital and the Court, they COULD NOT figure out how to get him and a possible treatment in the same place at the same time.

It was very probably inevitable- even the program they wanted to try has only had a handful of successes. The treatment itself is not described as being curative, but therapeutic.

As for the why they couldn't get him in...that's a very complex case of laws and medical ethics that we shouldn't get into in this thread, and could be tricky even in its own thread, given board rules.
