By Father Roger J. Landry, Integrated Catholic Life - After Alfie’s death, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, Pope Francis’ Secretary of State, summed up the “enormous sadness”... “In the face of openly manifested availability, repeatedly and with great commitment of resources — doctors from our hospital Bambino Gesù went to Liverpool three times — there was the refusal to allow Alfie to be brought to Italy… It’s incomprehensible. I cannot understand the logic. Or maybe there is [a logic], and it’s a terrible one.”
