As attorneys for Alfie Evans’ family and Alder Hey Children’s Hospital battle it out in court over the future of the 23-month old little boy, a huge new concern has materialized.
The judge in the case just prohibited Alfie’s family from taking him to Italy for care and treatment and potential experimental treatment for his rare degenerative neurological disorder. There is still a determination to be made about whether or not Alfie’s family can take him home.
But before any of that happens, Alfie’s father Tom is concerned about his son and whether or not he will starve to death because the hospital is withholding food.
One of the biggest questions most people observing this horrific case have asked is whether or not Alfie is getting food and water after the hospital yanked his life support yesterday over his parents objections. Oxygen was another question and Alfie’s family indicated that Alfie eventually received oxygen that significantly improved his physical condition.
Eventually Alfie’s family indicated he was receiving water as well. But in a brand-new post on Facebook, Alfie’s father makes it clear that a little boy is not receiving any food and he’s concerned that Alfie maybe starve to death.
“UPDATE: HE HAS NOW BEEN STARVED FROM NUTRITION FOR 23 hours😡😡😡😡 how is this HUMANE where does his DIGNITY LIE?” Tom Evans wrote.
Despite the lack of foo,d Tom indicates Alfie is holding up well.
“Coming up to 24 hours and he’s fighting with gorgeous his gorgeous features, pink lips, handsome grown up face, and odd cheeky smile now and again,” he said.
SIGN THE PETITION! Please Let Alfie Evans’ Parents Take Care of Him
Supporters of Alfie and his family were livid at the news.

An air ambulance has arrived outside the hospital where little Alfie Evans is located. Alfie has breathed on his own and has survived for over 20 hours after the Children’s Hospital yanked his life support.
Alfie has defied doctors’ expectations to this point and his parents are headed back to court to fight for his life further. They are hoping to be able to get life support restored and also want to be able to take him to Italy, which granted him citizenship yesterday.
Today, a British doctors group, The Medical Ethics Alliance, expressed its horror over the treatment of Alfie Evans that it called a “medical tyranny.”
And Italy’s Healthcare Chief has slammed the decisions by UK courts to treat Alfie the way that they have. The President of the Italian National Institute of Health lambasted the UK High Court’s decision yesterday on Alfie Evans’ that resulted it the children’s hospital being allowed to remove life support over Alfie’s parents’ objections.
Alfie’s father confirmed the removal of life support and oxygen in a video at 9:17 p.m. London time. “Alfie’s still here and fighting,” he said.
Pope Francis has repeatedly spoken on Alfie’s behalf and urged that Alfie’s parents be allowed to bring him to Italy.
Apologize for the language. My blood is boiling right now.
I’ve been arguing for the Europeans to defend themselves. I think it’s ruining themselves.
Because it’s the UK and the government owns your children to do whatever they want to do with them. You, subject, have no claim on your child.
The Brits would have been German lamp shades if not for a lot
of Brave American blood.
They’re gone. Finished.
Don’t apologize.
This is barbaric!
God is not laughing.
but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.
What is wrong with them is very simple. They refuse to provide him care, and therefore they don’t want anybody else to provide him care for fear they will be shown up.
Well that, and they do not value life. Abortions galore, and life is cheap to them.
The Lord God is not laughing.
They predicted Alfie would not last long off life support and they are determined to prove it if they have to murder him outright to do so. He will die of thirst and they will say “See! he was never viable anyway!”.
Demons. They are demons. Satan is licking his chops over them.
This level of hard core cruelty and coldness, I think is where the globalist are gonna take us. Our descendants will pay deeply for our laziness and stupidity.
And these are the same a**holes that don’t want Trump to visit their country?
You are in the UK, right? Is there no way they could leave against medical advice and get to Italy? This is heartbreaking
No. The situation is grim but not impossible. Many of them are just afraid. The Brits just need to wake up and then find their courage like their ancestors. That’s why the Leftists brutalizes heroes from the past because they don’t want any new one to fight against them.
And Trump invited Macron of France for his first State Dinner.
And not Threasa May.
I cannot comprehend the motives of the Left in this murder of a child. It’s not about saving money - sending him to a Vatican hospital would be cheaper than fighting to kill him. It’s not about mercy - death by suffocation or by starvation is not gentle.
I don’t think decent people are capable of understanding the minds of those who want to see this toddler die on demand. Whether or not we understand though, their fixation on control over the death of an innocent tells us everything we need to know about our adversaries. This is yet another reminder that we are facing pure evil.
Just shows you that bureaucrats would rather kill a baby than admit they are wrong! I’m not sure I wouldn’t take the kid at gunpoint if he were my grandson.
I sincerely hope that the administrator of the NHS grandkids end up in the same position.
I’m rapidly learning to hate govt employees period.
Pope Benedict and Franklin Graham should jointly make a plea to the British government to have him moved to Gesu Bambino.
Horrors, but tens of millions of American citizens want this here.
Socialized medicine....socialized murder...same thing!!!!
