João Pedro was brutally attacked, on the 14th of November, by individuals he did not know, as he was leaving a disco in Ayamonte, Spain.

At the time, the Guardia Civil took care of the incident and opened an investigation to investigate the causes and perpetrators of the crime. About ten days later, Spanish authorities arrested three men for alleged participation in the crime.

Due to the aggressions, João Pedro suffered a severe traumatic brain injury and an ischemic stroke.

During João Pedro's stay at the Hospital de Huelva, where he was transported, the family learned that there is a clinic in Spain (Hospital NISA Sevilla Aljarafe) that can help the young man, not only with motor issues, but also with brain problems. that are preventing you from communicating and interacting.

The Algarve citizen has already been admitted to the clinic but, after examinations, he had to return to Faro, where it is kept, to place a stunt and the titanium plates, in order to start the treatment in Seville.

This innovative treatment has a monthly cost of around 11 thousand euros and is estimated to have a minimum duration of around one year.
