Father: Sick UK child surviving after life support withdrawn

The father of a terminally ill British toddler said the child is surviving after being taken off life support, surprising doctors who had argued he should be allowed to die.

Tom Evans says his 23-month-old son, Alfie, survived for six hours with no assistance, and that doctors are now providing oxygen and hydration.

"He's now on oxygen," Evans said. "It's not changing his breathing but it's oxygenating his body."
