Days after a judge decided to take an allegedly abused toddler off of life support, the appeal of that decision was denied.

On Wednesday, the Appeals Court officially found no error in the decision from Friday, September 15 – and denied the appeal.

Lawyers for the child’s parents also asked for a stay for the case to go before the Supreme Court, but that request was turned down.

However, CTV News has learned the parents’ lawyer is trying to reach the Supreme Court anyways.

Now, the standing order to take the child off of life support could be carried out within the next 24 hours.

Friday’s decision came after a doctor testified the child, who cannot be identified, but has been called “Baby M” suffered profound and irreversible brain injury, as a result of cardiac arrest.

Her medical status and treatment includes her resuscitation after 911 was called on May 25, 2012.

According to doctors, she is deeply comatose, she completely depends on technology – and her condition has essentially remained unchanged since her admission to hospital.

Doctors said “Baby M” has had three bouts of pneumonia since she was admitted to hospital, and if she is to remain on life support, she must undergo a tracheostomy.

She is not considered brain dead, but it’s believed she is close to it, and physicians believe her current condition is permanent.

The court action was in connection to May 25, when “Baby M” and her twin sister – both two-years-old – were rushed to hospital, after “Baby M” suffered a life-threatening head injury.

Both of the girls were found to be severely malnourished and underweight – one weighed 6 kilograms (13 lbs.) and the other was just over 7 kilograms (16 lbs.).

Another child was found living in the home, a young boy, he is currently in foster care.

As a result of the serious injuries, the Homicide section is investigating.

Two counts each of aggravated assault, criminal negligence causing bodily harm and failing to provide the necessities of life were laid against the parents.

The charges could be upgraded, in the case of the child’s death.

An order has been put in place for each parent to independently visit ‘Baby M’ within the next 24 hours.
