LIVERPOOL: Hundreds of people took to the streets of Liverpool on Monday to mourn 23-month-old Alfie Evans, who died last month following a highly-charged battle between the hospital and his parents. The well-wishers broke into applause as the funeral cortege passed Everton football club's Goodison Park stadium, on its way to a private burial nearby. A card and flowers in memory of British toddler Alfie Evans are placed in front of Everton's Goodison park stadium in Liverpool as his family lay him to rest. His condition worsened and, a year later, in December 2017, the hospital recommended withdrawing life support. The case was the latest in a series of high-profile clashes between parents of seriously ill children and the British authorities.
