Haleigh Poutre (born February 24, 1994) is an American woman who became the subject of a legal controversy regarding the removal of life support for patients in persistent vegetative states. In 2005, 11-year-old Poutre awoke from a coma shortly before she was scheduled to be removed from life support. Poutre had a severe brain injury thought to be caused by abuse by her adoptive mother.〔Boston Herald (Court records: Haleigh Poutre ’making statements’ about abuse ), February 27, 2008〕 The case brought about many changes in the Massachusetts Department of Social Services, both in the way they handle reports of child abuse as well as their policies on end of life care for children in their custody. ==Background== Haleigh Poutre came to live with her maternal aunt, Holli Strickland, and Strickland's husband Jason at the age of 4 following allegations of sexual abuse at the hands of her mother's boyfriend. In 2001, Holli Strickland alone legally adopted Haleigh. When asked in court why he never legally adopted Haleigh, Jason Strickland replied "Honestly, I didn't feel like I needed a piece of paper to say I was her father."
