   This young girl deserves a chance to walk a Hell of a lot more than some overeater needs a gastric band. Someone should see sense and give the ok to perform this procedure.

   its unfair that an innocent child should miss on life’s opportunities, while money is spent on those who don’t need it nearly as much. good luck xx

    to much NHS money is wasted on cosmetic surgery and used for life changing operations. Good luck

    Can’t believe that everyone has not signed this! Operations like this should be way above those offering breast surgery and gastric band, I am afraid.

    If there’s even a slight chance then she should be given it, nhs is supposed to support those in need before those wanting vanity surgery . Good luck

    This was what the NHS was set up to do.

    We should not be spending millions on people who just need to use there willpower to diet or on people wanting breast implants. If Sophia has this operating she will be able to walk on her own and will not be a burden to her family or cost the country thousands in the future in care she will be contributing to the country in taxes etc. The NHS boards need to be more forward looking in there decisions and not be stuck in past as most of them are now,

    Good Luck – All those who over eat, smoke or drink in excess should be made to pay for treatment on the NHS so those who have no choice over their condition can have the treatment they need.

    this gorgeous young lady deserves the chance to be given a new lease of life by being able to walk

    Why on earth should we be forced to campaign for the NHS to treat this child.
