The family of transplant campaigner Max Johnson yesterday sent a message of hope to the parents of a toddler in need of a heart.
Three-year-old Evie Green was left fighting for life after an ordinary cold turned into rare myocarditis – inflammation of the heart tissue – when she was just four months old.
Evie’s parents Chloe and David Green, who also have a son Theo, four, are at her bedside at the Freeman Hospital, Newcastle upon Tyne.
