In this episode, Tyler and Devan talk to Dr. Jessica Turnbull about a difficult case involving an infant with a severe brain injury. What do we do when a child’s parents make choices the health care team believes are not in the child’s best interest? When should we refuse to continue medical treatments? Who do we turn to when parents are suspected of child abuse?
