Tumor charity: Isolation of Ashya is unacceptable A leading charity has said that the isolation of five-year-old brain cancer patient Ashya King from his parents in Spain is fundamentally and morally unacceptable. ...separating a desperately ill child from their family has significant emotional and psychological consequences. It has a profound impact not only on the child, but on their brothers and sisters, their parents and wider family. Forced separation will cause additional trauma for the family, who are already facing devastation from the diagnosis of the brain tumour, their young child undergoing major surgery and the possibility of gruelling treatments to come. – SARAH LINDSELL, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF THE BRAIN TUMOUR CHARITY Ashya is being treated in hospital in Malaga while a court in Madrid has ordered that Brett and Naghmeh must be detained for up to 72 hours while an extradition request from Britain is considered, following the removal of the boy from hospital in Southampton without doctors consent. itv/news/update/2014-09-01/tumor-charity-isolation-of-ashya-is-unacceptable/
