Article Featured Image

Earlier this year, the story of a Maltese boy called Nigel who needed a heart transplant stole the hearts of thousands. Seven months later and a successful major operation in London later, Nigel seems all set to kick off his passion once more; football.

“I’m ok, and thanks so much,” Nigel said in a Facebook video uploaded by L-Istrina last weekend. Flashing his signature smile, Nigel explained how, thanks to everyone’s help and support, he can now start playing football again. The short video closes with Nigel showing off some of his footie skills, happily running after the ball off-camera.

Nigel’s story has been documented for months now, and a video of the young boy right before and after his major operation had also been uploaded on Puttinu Cares’ Facebook page

Last month, Nigel was looking for a temporary home while he recovered from the operation, but now it looks like the little man is all set to go!

Nigel’s story, along with others who have had a very long and eventful 2017, will be told during this year’s L-Istrina charity marathon.
