The family of Archie Battersbee has been told his life support is to be withdrawn after a long-running legal battle over his treatment.
The 12-year-old’s mother Holly Dance said the hospital “made it very clear that we’ve got no more options.”

£15,000 a day to keep this vegetable alive
I pray for a miracle 🙏🏻
Michael Schumacher has improved with time and I believe he should have been given at least a year to recover. He deserved to live however much it cost daily.
it's so sad 😞
I feel like a p.o.s. for saying this but enough already Sky
At this point it just feels like car-crash journalism
God rest his soul ❤
his mom tried her best. God bless her. Rest well Archie
Murder by the state
but his gofundme support will continue until there is enough for loads of free cigs and free cider
So sad, so sorry mom.
Judges are twats! They rejected the applications so they came watch the family suffer, I pray for Archie and his family to heal in peace, RIP LIL ARCHIE DUDE
If Archie saw how hard his mum fought for him, for how long she fought against all the odds, he would be proud.
It's so sad to see a very young person passed away.. RIP
Archie should have some more time.. unfair cruel system..
I think the fact they did this so quickly is disgusting
Sky has excelled in a new form of snuff 'entertainment'… Gross!
❣️God bless ❣️
Can we stop reporting on this non story and giving them publicity
Disgrace
My heart goes out to Archie's family, so sorry for their loss. xxx
it should be kept on
oh well
It was meant to be switched off at 10am.
What's the delay?
Just switch it off.
Ahhh ok it says 9:03 at the bottom left.
👍🌼🌼🙂🙏
Unfortunately this is all about money nothing more . Live is worthless in the UK but the ppl who attempted to run this country waste billions every year on themselves
My heart goes out to her 😪 …. but it is the right decision
Your heart and gut means nothing against reality. It’s borderline torture keeping that poor boy alive. Not a single person EVER has recovered from brain necrosis, brain tissue found in the spine, etc. It’s sad and horrific, but it has gotten to a point where she is attention seeking or absolutely blind to reality.
They lived in hope but that miracle never happened.
Bless 💖
I feel for the parents I really do, But there are times in your life where just have to accept the truth and stop being in denial and do the right thing and let go.
Archive is sadly going to die anyway so why not let him die with dignity in his mums arms

Very difficult but try to articulate the dangers out there as best one can spesh on the internet. 😶A grt source for good but also bad. LIFE lessons should b taught as priority in school
In primary school onwards. God Bless.👁.🌌
The medical staff see this every day, we know better than a mums gut feeling. He has been dead since April.
ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING.
THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE
now its time to milk as much money as possible
They are no words to describe what his mother and farther & family are about to go through.
