On Sunday, relatives and friends will say their last “farewell” to him in a deeply sad atmosphere. Little Thomas of Grevena, whose adventure shocked all of Greece. The tragic story began on the afternoon of January 3 when the child had a seizure while at home.
The body of 6-year-old Thomas will be in the Holy Church of Evangelistria from 15:30.

As all the doctors did everything, the director of the ICU, Mr. Note that the Iliads were already informed and present. In fact, they all did what was humanly possible and scientifically possible”, added Mr. Karvelis.
The Chronicles
The tragic story began on the afternoon of January 3 when little Thomas was at home with a seizure. An EKAV ambulance took the child to Crevena Hospital, where doctors started intubating him and decided to transfer him to the ICU. Although a bed was sought in Thessaloniki, it was not available, so it was decided to transfer him to a hospital in Rio.
The next step for doctors there is to continue the process of “cooling” the brain to protect it from possible damage caused by unconsciousness by starting treatment. However, despite the efforts of doctors, 6-year-old Thomas did not succeed and lost the battle for life.
The results of a genetic test conducted by doctors to determine the cause of the 6-year-old boy’s arrest are pending.
