After a tough legal battle between his parents and the doctors at the Royal London Hospital, the life of Archie Battersbee, the 12-year-old boy who had been in a coma since April after participating in a viral challenge, has come to an end this Saturday on the 1:15 p.m., his mother, Hollie Dance, told British television.

Jonathan Brady / AP The family had undertaken a long legal process, with numerous resources, to keep the little boy alive, who had been brain dead since he was found unconscious on April 7 at his home in Southend, Essex County (southeast England). Archie was found with a rope tied around his head and it is estimated that he may have suffered an accident when he participated in some viral challenge through social networks. The child’s care has been the subject of weeks of legal battles. This Saturday the assisted breathing mechanisms that kept him alive were removed during the legal battle that the child’s parents have maintained, who tried to force the hospital to continue with the treatments to keep the child alive. The doctors argued that there was no chance of recovery and that he should be allowed to die.

In these cases, the best interests of the child take precedence over the parents’ right to decide what they think is best for their child. “I come full circle, acknowledging the enormity of what awaits Archie’s parents and family. Your unconditional love and dedication to Archie is a golden thread running through this case,” Superior Court Judge Lucy wrote.

We are devastated but we move on, because we love Archie and we refuse to give up on him,” he lamented. The dispute is the latest case in the UK to pit the judgment of doctors against the wishes of families. This time, faith also came into play: the Battersbees wanted God to decide Archie’s fate. For this reason, one of the few supports the family has had has been from a religious pressure group, Christian Concern. Archie had been in a coma since he was found unconscious at his home in Southend, Essex, on April 7, and was being kept alive by a combination of medical interventions, including ventilation and drug treatments.
