The parents of Archie Battersbee have had a final appeal at the European Court of Human Rights to keep him on life support rejected.
Hollie Dance had submitted an 11th-hour request for the ECHR to consider her son's case and postpone the withdrawal of his life-sustaining treatment.
Doctors in the UK say Archie, 12, is brain-stem dead but mum Hollie wants him to remain on life support and possibly get flown abroad for treatment.
