The doctors of the Mediterranean Institute for Transplantation and High Specialization Therapies of Palermo have started the process to declare the brain death of the 7-year-old child who in recent days risked drowning in a swimming pool in Villagrazia , near the Municipality of Carini .

Unfortunately, the little one never recovered after, perhaps taken ill, he remained face down for several minutes while he was playing in the pool.

The prognosis was reserved from the first admission. The investigations into the accident are conducted by the Carabinieri of Carini's company and coordinated by the prosecutor.

The parents are expected to decide on the possible willingness to donate organs.

The day before another tragedy with a child as a victim had occurred in the province of Palermo, in Termini Imerese . A 4-year-old child drowned, a few meters from his parents.
