The hospital wasn't refusing care. It was refusing to prolong the baby's life with life supporting interventions. The hospital wanted to put the baby on palliative care which is basically stop all life supporting interventions and providing nursing care and pain relief for a dignified pain free death. Doctors have more insight into patient prognosis and what the patient is actually going to have to suffer and endure from the result of their conditions/interventions. The legal guardian has limited concept and the impairment of an emotional attachment. That Baby K, probably suffered a lot because of the choices her mother made, even though they were made out of love. The baby needlessly suffered and it suffered for no good reason, it was never going to get better. I worked in hospital and have seen the complications that arise from ventilators, PEG etc and they are grim. Honestly I wouldn't want to see my child suffer like that if I knew it would not get better. What this baby needed more than anything was mercy and unfortunately that got blindsided by a mother's love and faith.
