Indi's parents say she 'deserves a chance at life' and can 'experience happiness'. But hospital bosses say there should be an agreed 'ceiling of care'.

The parents of a baby with an incurable condition have begun a High Court battle over the treatment the six-month-old can receive.

Nottingham University NHS Foundation Trust believe it is not in Indi's best interests to continue"invasive" treatment, with barrister Emma Sutton KC, who led the trust's legal team, telling the judge the six-month-old was"critically" ill. "The court is asked to make that decision because Indi's parents and those treating her cannot agree."

Mr Gregory said after the hearing:"We are just ordinary people and have been plunged into this complete nightmare."
