I am not sure of it, and have no information other than that I related here.

I hope you're right, but don't see how I was misleading by pointing out that the hospital has a profit motive for killing kids, since that is the publicly available information regarding the matter.

What information has assured you the hospital didn't sell Alfie's organs? I'd be at least a little less outraged by his forced death if I had some indication they didn't profit from it.

Because he died of a mysterious illness or was inflicted with a mysterious supposedly neurological illness that even up to his death went un- diagnosed, they would never take a chance and place his organs in someone else under those conditions.

Well, you are quite correct--if there aren't other uses for organs. @benswann mentioned they sold them to pharmaceutical companies, not to transplant patients.

Well I guess I will never know what benswann said unless I want to spend twenty minutes trying to watch a five minute video in freeze frames. I wouldn't know why for the life of me a pharmaceutical company would want his remains....if you made it through the video I guess you could enlighten me. I'd still think parents have a right to remains over other entities.

It has been frustrating of late trying to watch Dtube, because of that =/

He didn't say why the pharmaceutical companies bought them, but he did mention that parents weren't informed, until the recent revelation.

I reckon you're right about parents rights, but I reckon they'd have the right to change hospitals too.

I think they have socialized medicine over there, I am sure you lose a lot of rights when given free health care.

Well, that's prolly true, and a line in the sand for me. Particularly when Alfie was availed of dual citizenship, and Italy offered free medical care.
