Baby Kaylee leaving Toronto hospital, returning home

[Guest guest]

For those not familiar with this case, doctors explained to the family that this

baby was a burden to the national healthcare system and urged parents to pull

the plug on the baby's respirator, thereby killing it so they could harvest her

organs for transplant.

They pulled the respirator, and the baby acted as any normal healthy baby would:

It breathed.

Let us remember that the Canadian Healthcare System is what Obama wants for the

US.

Baby Kaylee leaving Toronto hospital, returning home

Last Updated: Tuesday, May 12, 2009 | 6:15 PM ET

The baby girl at the centre of a highly publicized heart transplant that was

called off at the last minute will be discharged from a Toronto hospital on

Thursday, a representative for the baby's family said.

Three-month-old Kaylee Vitelli, who suffers from a rare and deadly brain

condition called Joubert syndrome, will be leaving Toronto's Hospital for Sick

Children and returning to her home in Bradford, Ont., north of Toronto, a public

relations firm representing the family confirmed.

Kaylee's parents, Wallace and Crystal Vitelli, first made headlines a

month ago when they went public with their wish to have their dying daughter's

heart transplanted into another ill baby girl, one-month-old Lily O'Connor of

P.E.I.

The transplant was called off when Kaylee defied the doctors' prognosis and

survived once being taken off a respirator, breathing on her own.

Since then, the parents have publicly clashed with hospital staff and requested

earlier this month that Kaylee be removed from the world-renowned facility to a

hospital closer to her home. The hospital had said efforts were being made to

move Kaylee to another hospital.

Those plans are now not necessary.
