Alfie Evans could be home in THREE DAYS but protestors make it ‘impossible'
Brave Alfie Evans’ family is desperately seeking judicial approval to send the toddler to Italy for treatment after British doctors said nothing more could be done.
The 23-month-old has been diagnosed with an incurable neurological condition but Alfie’s family believe he can still be saved.
A court case is currently ongoing in Manchester, with one clinician at Alder Hey hospital saying protestors were disrupting the process.
As the family battle to send Alfie to Italy for further treatment, an Alder Hey clinician, part of the team treating Alfie overnight, told court the soonest staff could move Alfie home is within three to five days but hostility towards medics make it "impossible" at present.
The toddler has been granted Italian citizenship and his family are desperately seeking approval to send him to a Vatican-run children hospital in Italy.
Speaking to the court, the clinician said there is “genuine fear” among doctors due to the hostile atmosphere created by protestors outside the hospital.
