16-year-old Yiannis[/B]'s exit from the intensive care unit and the birth of his sister, on the day of his birthday, eased the pain of the family and relatives for a while in the face of the unbelievable tragedy they experienced when the 16-year-old, out of miscalculation, pulled the trigger and killed his beloved uncle while hunting, and then shot himself.
The 16-year-old is now in contact with his surroundings and has reportedly been discharged from the Intensive Care Unit and continues his treatment in a ward of the surgical clinic of the Arta hospital. The miracle in which his parents were hoping for the return of 16-year-old Giannis has become a reality. According to doctors, when Yiannis woke up, he talked to his mother and the next day the woman gave birth to the 16-year-old's little sister, the third child of the family, at the same hospital.
The road is still long for Yiannis' health to improve, while the critical twenty-four hours have been overcome, doctors say.
The 16-year-old, who had shot himself when he realised he had killed his beloved uncle George during a wild boar hunt in the mountains of Arta, was being treated in a critical condition.
The procedure to wake him up has been successfully completed at the city hospital where he is being treated. The procedure for the 16-year-old began on Wednesday at noon and unfolded well throughout the day. At night, the procedure was halted and resumed Thursday morning with the 16-year-old awakening.
The timeline of the tragedy
Last Sunday afternoon, eight men had set up a campsite and, with their guns loaded, waited to strike their prey. The 33-year-old uncle of the 16-year-old boy moved from his hiding place, causing 16-year-old John to think a wild boar was passing by and unintentionally kill his beloved uncle.
[/P][BR][BR]Unable to believe what had happened and before any of the rest of the group could react, the young boy turned the rifle on himself and shot himself. Doctors removed a third of a lung from the 16-year-old while the bullets hit him just 2.3mm from the heart.
