Families are routinely barred from saying they have a relative in these court cases & this impacts on journalism too.@CardiffJomec PhD student unpacks the implications & a successful challenge to the ban here, co-written with @KitzingerCelia @CardiffLaw & a mother: Heather Walton.

Heather Walton can be named as the mother of a P in a Court of Protection case. Two days ago I could have been held in contempt of court for saying that: been fined, had my assets seized or even been sent to prison. New blog:.@OpenJusticeCoP .

As well as the original 2 day court hearing there was also Court of Appeal hearing & a long published judgment from that too (29th Nov.) .A pity no reference by journalist to this wealth of diverse information to unpack this distressing situation.

Interesting to read Mail’s account of this tragic case. Family believe this unconscious woman blinks on request. This was disputed in court by nurses/drs caring for her & ‘second opinion’ experts. Why assert as fact & not report diverse sources?

They said the devout 54-year-old grandmother, a former NHS hospital worker, would want to be kept alive and 'have a chance of life'.

Thinking a lot about family today as I walk out the back door of my family home for last time. My parents, now both dead, loved this house & lived here for over half a century. So many memories in each room & the fabric of the building. This afternoon the new owners move in.

My new blog: . ‘families are not inevitably the best people to advocate for a patient. But sometimes families are exactly the right people to promote ‘P’s voice’ – and that is the strong sense I got with this family.”. But the judge made a different decision.
