NOW PLAYING Charlie Gard's father: So sorry we couldn't save you With tears streaming down their faces, the parents of terminally ill baby Charlie Gard on Monday withdrew their application seeking to take the child to the United States for an experimental medical treatment, with the couple's lawyer announcing "the window of opportunity has been lost."

Attorney Grant Armstrong said at London's High Court it was too late for the 11-month-old child to receive treatment. Recent medical tests revealed Charlie has irreversible muscular damage.

"It's too late for Charlie," Armstrong said. "The damage has been done."

Charlie's parents, Chris Gard and Connie Yates, cried in the courtroom as the lawyer announced the news -- their last bid to seek permission to take their child to the U.S. for treatment.

The Nazis in the British government won. This precious child will die due to their brutality and murderous urges. This Britain has moved beyond compassion and love to promoting and encouraging death to those not born perfect, those in the way of progress and those others have decided have no right to live. Hitler would be so proud that he has finally conquered Britain.

Sounds like premeditated murder by the government.

This is socialism.

This is single payer.

It’s not about health. It’s not about money.

It’s about control.

God bless Charlie Gard and protect him and his family.
