I don’t know the ins and outs of this specific case so my comment will be general but sometimes the family aren’t able to make the decisions that are in the best interests of the child - of course every parent wants to do what’s best and will clutch at every straw but sometimes it’s just not the right thing to do.
I suspect this is what is happening in this case, and taking the story on face value faith is a very strange angle to use as your argument. I suspect the Daily Mail are possibly sensationalising it a tad.
Stopped reading after seeing the headline tbh.
What difference does it make whether they are Muslim or not?
It does not make any difference at all I am pointing out that the hospital is taking the decision away from the family!
Here you go not the mail

The girl has been in hospital on an artificial ventilator since Feb 9th and she's in a coma. It's very sad but if she won't recover, which all but one doctor have said, then perhaps they're doing what's best for the child.
Possibly but if it was my child I would give it that last chance with the italian doctor, nothing to lose!
Anyone would, but the brutal truth is that it denies precious resources to another child/other children who also desperately need them to survive. That's why the decisions are made by people not emotionally attached
- and they're not decisions made lightly. No one wants to be making that call.
The opposite of a Jehovah's Witness refusing a blood transfusion on religious grounds. Would people be arguing that the JW's were right to refuse a blood transfusion or would they be happy for the Medics to make the best decision for the good of the child?
