    Lost his brave fight for life this morning, R.I.P,
    Thoughts for his parents who fought to the end.

    Too many feckwits thinking they know better than the doctors.The parents were just clinging on to any bit of hope they could, as anybody would....Such a sad story.

    The most horrendous situation. Absolutely thoughts with the family, I can't imagine their grief.

    One of the bad side effects of 'social media' shown up with this 'Alfie's army'. Poor kid deserved more dignity than the underclass of society backing him with gaudy banners and demonstrations. Sometimes life sucks, it isn't fair and some poor family has to cop it. In this instance the parents of the poor child. Hope they can find some peace out of this terrible loss.

    Saw it on a report from outside the hospital. They had fairground rides charging kids to have a go

    To be fair, it does look like they were raising money. I’m still not at all comfortable with it though.

    Mate, they were desperate, and listened to people that told them what they wanted to hear.

    Did I read it right that the hospital they were planning on taking him to in Italy was not offering any treatment for him... only to keep him on life support?
    As much as I sympathise with the parents... Why put the poor tormented tot through more upheaval with no chance of a positive impact on his life?

    I think he ended up embroiled in something which was out of his control.

    I feel for the poor boy but are we going to nationally mourn the death of every other child who has his condition? No.

    The lad should have been allowed to pass away with dignity not viewed through this media horror show his parents put him through.

    It would be nice of them to give all the proceeds of the newspaper articles to local children’s hospices
