May 26, 2021 "The child was extubated" and "for a moment - said the general director of the City of Health of Turin, Giovanni La Valle - little Eitan regained consciousness". Beside him, in addition to the anesthesiologists and psychologists of the Regina Margherita children's hospital in Turin, there was his aunt Aya, sister of his father who died with his mother and two-year-old brother in the cabin of the crashed cable car. Eitan, 5, is the only survivor in the cable car tragedy.
"He is not yet conscious - they specified from the hospital - he is breathing autonomously and is helped by the oxygen mask".
"The night passed well and confirms the clinical stability of the child, despite the critical conditions. The team is managing him in the best possible way", added Giorgio Ivani, director of the Reanimation department of the Regina Margherita.
"Let's wait together for the next few hours and that we can awaken. It is a very delicate phase, because there is a gradual recovery of consciousness. It will need some time, but he has already opened his eyes and therefore has found a familiar face which is that of the aunt ".
