Archie Battersbee’s mother has vowed to continue to fight for her son despite the Court of Appeal’s refusal to postpone the withdrawal of the 12-year-old’s life-sustaining treatment beyond 12pm on Tuesday.
The youngster was due to have his life-support at the Royal London Hospital in east London ended at 2pm on Monday, after a High Court judge ruled this to be in his best interests and the family exhausted all routes of appeal.
