Girl wins right to refuse heart

"A terminally ill girl has won the right to refuse treatment after a hospital ended its bid to force her to have a heart transplant. Herefordshire Primary Care Trust, UK, dropped a High Court case after a child protection officer said Hannah Jones was adamant she did not want surgery. Hannah, 13, of Marden, near Hereford, said she wanted to die with dignity. Her father Andrew said he and his wife supported her decision but they had been upset by the PCT's actions. He said Hereford County Hospital's child protection team had contacted them in February threatening to remove Hannah from their care if they did not bring her to hospital for the operation." - BBC
