Leading pro-life advocates who are helping the family of Charlie Gard described today’s decision by a judge as a victory for his family.

As LifeNews reported earlier today, the judge in the case set up another hearing on Thursday to determine whether or not Charlie can receive an experimental treatment to help him with his very rare medical condition. But as one pro-life campaigner tells LifeNews, this was a huge victory for Charlie and his parents.

Reverend Patrick Mahoney said he is delighted that a British High Court denied Great Ormond Street’s Hospital’s request to deny a hearing allowing new evidence in the Charlie Gard case.

Mahoney, director of the Christian defense coalition and pastor of church on the hill in Washington DC has been with Charlie’s family and was in the courtroom for the hearing today.

“Today was a significant victory for Charlie Gard and his parents as the British high court ruled against the great Ormond Street hospital and allowed a hearing to move forward on Thursday presenting new evidence in Charlie’s case,” he told LifeNews.

He added: “If this new evidence is accepted, Charlie will be able to receive experimental treatment in the United States or other countries. Our prayers are with Charlie and his parents and we would hope the court would respect The wishes and rights of his parents to move forward with medical care that will improve the health of their son.”

Americans United for Life President & CEO Catherine Glenn Foster is also in England helping Charlie’s family.
