Terminally ill Brit baby gets citizenship, aid offer from Italy

Baby Indi Gregory family hopes the Italian government’s decision will add heft to their fight to allow her to be transferred to Italy.

An 8-month-old terminally ill British girl was granted Italian citizenship Monday after a court in Britain upheld rulings authorizing the withdrawal of life-supporting invasive treatment. Baby Indi Gregory family hopes the Italian government’s decision will add heft to their fight to allow her to be transferred to Italy. 

A private online hearing is scheduled for Tuesday in which a British judge is scheduled to consider issues relating to the baby’s care. The judge ruled last week that the baby could not be moved. The Vatican’s pediatric hospital, Bambino Gesu, in Rome has offered to care for Indi and the Italian government said it would pay her bills.
