Default Boy With Brain Tumour Taken From Hospital

Quote:
Police have launched a major investigation to find a boy with a brain tumour, taken without consent from hospital by his parents.

Hampshire Constabulary said "there are serious concerns" for the life of Ashya King as he needs constant medical care.

Officers said his parents - Brett King, 51, and Naghemeh King, 45, - boarded a cross-Channel ferry from Portsmouth to Cherbourg at 4pm yesterday.


Ashya King needs constant medical attention, police say

The parents went with Ashya's six siblings, officers said.

Police said Ashya was taken from Southampton General Hospital at around 2pm yesterday by his family, who live in St David's Road, Southsea, Portsmouth.

CCTV images captured the moment the boy was wheeled out of the hospital, apparently by his father.


Hampshire Police have launched a social media campaign to find Ashya

Ashya is still likely to be in a wheelchair or buggy, he cannot communicate verbally and is immobile, a police spokesman said.

The family are travelling in a grey-coloured Hyundai I800 Style CRDI, registration KP60 HWK, and they are still believed to be in France.

Police said they arrived in France at 8pm local time last night.


Mother Naghemeh King is believed to be in France

Hampshire Constabulary said: "We are working with our counterparts in France to activate their emergency child rescue alert procedures to locate the family as soon as possible.

"If we do not locate Ashya today there are serious concerns for his life.

"He is receiving constant medical care within the UK due to recent surgery and ongoing medical issues.


Father Brett King is thought to have taken the boy from hospital

"Without this specialist 24-hour care Ashya is at risk of additional health complications which place him at substantial risk."

Detective Superintendent Dick Pearson, of the Hampshire Major Investigation Team, said: "He needs to be taken to a medical facility for his urgent health requirements as soon as he is located.

"We have also launched a social media appeal and would urge everyone to share this appeal, particularly if you have friends and relatives in France and bordering countries."

Anyone with information about Ashya's whereabouts should contact Hampshire Constabulary on 101, quoting Operation Aquilion.

Apparently they're taking him to France. If it's for medical purposes that they've done it then i'm not against it as French doctors are generally better than English ones. And my fam and I are considering doing the same for a fam member going through stuff.

All their children will be put into care; They will be arrested and the boy might've died by the time they find him. All because of a book.

If Jehovah's Witnesses want to believe they should refuse treatment, that's their right. But if they are refusing treatment on religious grounds for their child, the courts will rightly step in. I can't comprehend someone allowing their faith to deny their child the lifesaving treatment they need.

There has been a spokesman from the Jehovah's witnesses who has said That there is No indication that the decision is in anyway motivated by religious convictions.....

Can't imagine why they'd take him away for any other reason though... it's a strange one.

I doubt this has anything to do with the family's religion. The reason I say that is because he already underwent brain surgery. The JW religion forbids blood transfusions, and there is always blood transfused during such a surgery, is there not?

I feel if the decision was religion based, he would have received little or no treatment.

I'm beginning to wonder if the boy has almost no survival chance, and they wish to either try alternative medicines, or to have him die peacefully at home, rather than continue with aggressive treatment.

I think at this stage, nobody really knows. The family may come forward in time and explain their decision.

Apparently the parents were told by the medical staff that there was nothing more they could do for the child and that his condition was terminal. I can't really understand why there is such an outcry in the media and a huge manhunt ..........what will arresting the parents achieve beyond criminalizing grieving parents and family members.

I couldn't believe the story about the battery, that was meant to fire up emotion in the public. Tube feeding was always done per Ryles Tube and a syringe. No batteries needed.
The child is dying and he should be allowed to do so peacefully at home with his loving and supportive family.

This looks like a very vindictive move by the authorities and I do not approve. We all are entitled to a dignified death surrounded by loved ones.

Exactly!

The hype about JW religion was to stoke up support for this unbelievably insane man-hunt. They were being totally disingenuous. But the media often are......

Most JW parents are sensible and know the law can be invoked to protect their child.

This child is beyond medical help - the doctors have already declared they can offer no further treatment. At this point patients are sent home to die or if family can't cope to a Hospice.

The family were facing radiotherapy according to the vid, another child with medulloblastoma Neon Roberts mother wanted proton therapy but it isn't available here on the NHS.

'The Imperial Cancer Research and the Cancer Research Campaign (now both merged into UK Cancer Research) in response to the Act, said that they would probably be in breach of the Act since they discuss cancer treatment all the time. However because they pushed through Łmillions per year in funding of research they were going to ignore the consequences – which have never been pressed…
Over the next 30 years or so, with the introduction of the NHS, the government’s responsibilities under the Cancer Act 1939 were replaced. The majority of the Act’s clauses were replaced. Finally the only clause left was one that prevented open discussion of treatments by interested lay people. What was originally an Act in the name of Public Health and with the intention of curing people… now is only used to shut people up…'

I'm surprised such a large manhunt came out of this. I don't quite understand what the authorities reason would be for that, as they haven't committed a crime, and parents have the final say on what happens with the care of their child.

When an adult refuses medical treatment there are no laws against it. If you refuse it or leave the hospital then there's nothing the hospital or the authorities can do.

Unless there are some rules regarding children with illnesses in healthcare that I'm unaware of.

So much is more clear now
he went to Spain to sell his Spanish property fast
to fund the Prot.B meds treatment.

He said he could not tell Southampton Hosp.
as they would put a court order to stop that.
Nasty NHS.
