News title:
Doctor admits baby 'may interact' (click here to read)

Article summary:
A doctor has agreed a baby in a "right-to-life" legal row may be able to interact - but any mental development would only make his fate more tragic. The paediatric neurologist told the High Court the severely disabled child, Baby RB, would remain in a "no chance" situation even if he developed further. He questioned the life the boy would lead if he was capable of cognitive function but physically so disabled. The boy's father is fighting an attempt by the hospital to end life support.
