In a video interview this morning outside Alder Hey hospital (see below), Thomas Evans held up a photo of Alfie taken last evening and said: "Look at the smile. Look at the smile. I said to them reduce the drugs and reduce the ventilator and he will breathe."

"The third day now and there's not been one single problem with him. The nurse came in and said: 'Wow, Wow,'" he added.

Speaking to reporters about yesterday's Court of Appeal ruling, Evans said: "We got rejected yesterday to go to Italy, unfortunately. We could take it further, but would it be the right thing to do? Would people give me more criticism? So what we are going to do today is we have a meeting with the doctors at Alder Hey and we now start asking to go home."

"Alfie does not need intensive care. Alfie is lying on his bed with one liter of oxygen going into his lungs, and the rest is him," his father said.

He continued:

"Some people are saying it's a miracle. It's not a miracle. It's a misdiagnosis. There's no miracle about this. I've had a feeling about Alfie's condition for a long time now ... he's been off the ventilator for three and there's been no deterioration.

It's just nurses sitting outside the room and leaving us in the room to do what we do."

"What we do now, we can do at home," he said.

Evans expressed his gratitude for the outpouring of support Alfie has received from around the world. He said he just heard this morning that the President of Poland, Andrzej Duda, has spoken out.

"The support we have now from Poland, it's amazing," he said. "We've always been in touch with the Polish. People are starting to raise their heads now, because Alder Hey is making this hole bigger for themselves at the end of the day."

He added: "This shouldn't be about cost. It's not about cost, it's about Alfie. He's proven everyone wrong, except me and his mum. That's why we're here today, because we knew, we had the feeling that Alfie would make it"...
