Louise White asks listeners if they would challenge medical advice when it came to their child's welfare. Also she asks if people are too quick to dismiss the paranormal.
TOPIC 1: AHSYA KING
The parents who removed their ill five year old so9n from a UK hospital and fled to Spain are due to appear in court today. Brett and Naghemeh King are facing extradition to the UK after they were arrested in Malaga. It is understood they have been held on suspicion of the maltreatment of a child. It has emerged that they had chosen to remove their son Ashya who has a brain tumour from a Southampton hospital against medical advice because they were unable to get specialist treatment on the NHS.
Louise asks: Would you challenge medical advice when it comes to your child?
TOPIC 2: PARANORMAL
