Alfie Evans' father says newborn son Thomas 'gives him a reason to live' after 23-month-old Alfie's death
The newborn son of the couple — Tom Evans and Kate Evans — who is now six-months-old, was born 10 months after his elder brother died
The father of Alfie Evans, a 23-month-old who died from a neurodegenerative disease last year after his parents battled to keep him alive, on Sunday said that his newborn son — a spitting image of Alfie — has given the couple a reason to live.
The newborn son of the couple — Tom Evans and Kate Evans — who is now six-months-old, was born just months after his elder brother died. Alfie's death devastated the family as Tom said that he thought he would never experience joy after losing his baby boy, until Thomas was born.
The tragic case of Alfie, who died in April after spending more than a year in the hospital, attracted widespread media attention.
