Doctors, who are keeping a pregnant woman alive in hospital, could face a legal battle to turn off the life support machine.
It's emerged that the clinically dead woman is being kept alive against her parents' wishes.
It's reported that the woman suffered major injuries as a result of a blood clot, but is being kept on life support to preserve her unborn child.
It's understood the pregnancy is in its second trimester.
The woman's parents are now considering legal action, after doctors said they were not permitted to turn off the life support machine.
