“Baby Joseph†returns to Canada, breathing on his own
April 28, 2011
Joseph Maraachli, the boy whose family refused to accept a Canadian hospital’s recommendation to remove his breathing tube and allow him to die, is now breathing on his own without the assistance of a mechanical ventilator. The family flew back to their home in Ontario last week, one month after Joseph received a tracheotomy at a children’s hospital in St Louis, Missouri. (BioEdge)
