The complex case of Archie Battersbee has given rise to a debate about how our society handles such tragic cases, where doctors and families battle in court over life support treatment.
Archie, aged 12, suffered traumatic brain injuries after an incident at home in April. Doctors eventually wanted to end his life support treatment, but his parents objected and the case ended up in the courts.
Archie’s parents were supported by the Christian Legal Center. Its CEO Andrea Williams writes in this edition of ET to explain why they fought so hard for Archie’s right to life.
