Babe mother sought doctors to kill dies in Toronto
Nine months of auter ing ended today with the death of a Toronto baby whose mother had appealed to doctors to end the life. The hydrocephalic infant grew its head to three times normal size and became unconscious early this week. Brain pressure paralyzed vital centers. Dr Luke Testey said the parents are sensi ble about it and the child bore the burden of an inhumane law. The case prompted calls to overcome superstitious government action in each condition and to acknowledge the needless agony of a baby and two loving parents.
