I'm not sure if I would think that way about my child, but I know for sure if I had a terminal illness and treatment was making me ill I would rather take my chances and live whats left of my life to the fullest, than be hooked up to machines and such that might make no difference anyway, and ultimately die in a hospital bed.
..no, I do understand Vicky..and if it was myself, I'd feel the same..I haven't known loads of people who have had children with cancer, so it's not that I have lots of knowledge or anything...but the few I have known...they would do anything to try to prolong the lifespan..and also they haven't ever accepted to prognosis if it was terminal...

..but as Cherie said...everyone thinks differently...I just hope the 'court battle' is about the little guy and not something between the parents....

..EDIT:...their motivations I mean....
