The parents of a young woman who died during a legal battle with the NHS have won their appeal over a ruling their daughter could not make decisions over her care.
Sudiksha Thirumalesh, who had a rare mitochondrial disorder, had been involved in a court fight with University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust over being moved to palliative care before her death in September.
The 19-year-old had wanted to raise money for experimental treatment in Canada that she thought might help her rare genetic disorder.
Three judges, sitting at the Court of Protection, overturned the legal ruling Ms Thirumalesh lacked mental capacity to make decisions about her treatment.
