No, this is important. I will be very brief. Whereas the parents were told the child would not survive past two or three days, the child actually lived for 11 weeks and was given a Christian name and a Christian burial. Doctors are not right all the time, and it is important that that be put on the record. This is a case in which the child lived for 11 weeks and the parents were told it would not live past two days.
