British Parents Give Up Fight to Move Baby Charlie
英国父母放弃移动查理宝宝
A British couple has given up a controversial fight to take their terminally ill baby to the US for experimental treatment. Charlie Gard, an eleven-month-old, has a rare disease that makes it impossible for him to breathe on his own. Doctors in London were opposed to the idea of transferring Charlie to New York and felt that he could experience unnecessary suffering. The European Human Rights Court recently ruled that Charlie’s doctors had a right to remove him from life support. The American neurologist who had offered to treat Charlie changed his mind this week after seeing a more recent MRI. Charlie will now be moved to a nearby hospice to spend the remainder of his life.
一对英国夫妇放弃了将他们晚期患病的婴儿移至美国接受实验治疗的备受争议的打算。11个月大的查理·加德患有一种罕见的疾病，基本无法自主呼吸。伦敦的医生反对将查理移至纽约，认为他可能遭受不必要的痛苦。欧洲人权法院最近宣判查理的医生有权为其解除生命补给。一名美国神经学家曾答应为查理治疗，但在本周看了近期的核磁共振成像以后，他改变了主意。现在，查理将被移至附近的救济院安度余生。
