Archie Battersbee's life support is to be switched off today (August 6) and his mother Hollie Dance has spoken about the lasting effects of the months-long ordeal. The 12-year-old boy was found unconscious in April after suffering a catastrophic brain injury.
The legal avenues of Hollie and Archie's father Paul Battersbee have been exhausted after a number of challenges to extend the boy's life-sustaining treatment. It comes as their efforts to move him to hospice were rejected on Friday, the Mirror reported.
His mum has shared she will hear the machines connected to her son for "the rest of my life" ahead of the withdrawal of his treatment in hospital at 10am on Saturday.
