All those arrangements were made by that Italian Cardinal, as well as many more communications on behalf of Alfie. I cannot find his name on google, it’s 6 letters and starts with C. He was extremely involved yet almost never mentioned, I imagine not to detract from Francis.

I saw listed these names as outstanding Italian clergy who defended Alfie and did the practical footwork to try to get him transported to Gesu Bambino: Cardinal Pietro Parolin (Vatican Secretary of State), Mgr Angelo Becciu (Parolin's deputy), and Msgr Francesco Cavina.

They recruited Mariella Enoc, top administrator of the Gesu Bambino Hospital, who actually flew into Liverpool bringing several physicians who are specialists in anesthesia and resuscition.

Meanwhile, the UK hierarchy canned the Italian priest, Fr. Gabriele Brusco, who was there with Alfie and his parents in the hospital room for 10 days and gave Alfie the Sacraments. Sent him back to London, and then revoked his faculties (forbade him to function as a priest in the UK) and booted him back to Italy.

I can't think of strong enough words to tell you the shame and wrath I feel towards those ... gah...
