Allow undiagnosed children the right to remain on a ventilator until diagnosed!!

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I speak on before of the children, parent's and our nation!

Undiagnosed Children should be cared for with dignity, compassion and have the legal right to remain on a ventilator until given a diagnosis by a hospital of there parent's choice. Not euthanized, it is beyond incomprehensible!
EVERY child & EVERY parent should always have the legal right and last say when seeking a second opinion from a different hospital, whether it be oversea's or an additional hospital here in the UK.
No-one should have the right to take parental right's away from parent's when deciding this and exploring different avenues in order to finding a diagnosis for there child(ren).
Not the goverment nor the hospital, it is injustice.
No-one know's a child more, more then the parent's themselve's!!!

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure what you mean by "Allow undiagnosed children the right to remain on a ventilator until diagnosed!!".

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
