The four-year-old girl from Santorini continues to fight hard to stay alive, intubated in a hospital in Heraklion.
According to information from cretapost, her health condition is characterized as "stable critical" while she remains intubated and under sedation in the ICU after the lung failure she experienced two days ago (Thursday 1/12), after swallowing a peanut.
Little ray of hope for the little girl who swallowed a peanut
However, with his statements to cretapost, the Governor of the University Hospital of Heraklion, Mr. Giorgos Chalkiadakis, lets a small ray of optimism shine through.
Specifically, Mr. Chalkiadakis, without overlooking the criticality of the incident, states that "every 24 hours that pass, the condition of the 4-year-old remains stable, she is better."
It is noted that from the first moment the doctors and nurses of PAGNI fought to keep alive the little girl who swallowed peanuts and experienced breathing difficulties.

That same Tuesday night (11/29), she underwent emergency surgery to endoscopically remove the peanuts that had blocked her right lung (right trunk bronchus).
