Doctors at Great Ormond Street Hospital have been told they can switch off life support for a terminally baby after his parents lost their final legal battle. 10 month old charlie gard suffers from a rare genetic condition and has brain damage. His family wanted to take him to america for experimental treatment. Butjudges at the European Court of human rights refused to overturn the decision of courts in the uk. Our medical correspondent fergus walsh reports. These touching images of connie yates and chris gard with their son charlie were taken on the roof of Great Ormond Street Hospital a Family Picnic organised by nurses. A Brief Respite from the months they have spent in Intensive Care. Charlie is terminally ill with a progressive disorder that weakens his muscles. He cannot move, he cannot breathe unaided and Cannot Swallow and has serious brain damage. For months, his doctors have argued he should be allowed to die. His parents wanted to take him to the United States for experimental treatment, and they were distraught when three uk courts backed the doctors. Now by a majority verdict, the European Court has done the same. The strasbourg judges ruled the uk courts had been meticulous and thorough and supported their view that it was most likely charlie was being exposed to continued pain, suffering and distress.

There is now a question of what will happen to the £1. 3 million that charlies parents crowdfunded through 83,000 donations. So why has every court and every medical experts decided that ending charlies life is in his best interests . It was said by the courts today that he is likely to be suffering and if any treatment were to continue or he was taken to the us for experimental treatment, there is going to be a very limited benefit and he is going to be at risk of suffering significant harm. Great ormand street says there is no rush to change charlies care and their priority is to support his parents at this distressing time, but at some point in the near future, medical staff on the Intensive Care unit will switch off the Mechanical Ventilator that keeps charlie alive. It is rare for disputes over treatment to go to court, but the judges decision is final and they have backed the view that charlie should be allowed to die with dignity. Fergus walsh, bbc news.
