Greek Australian John Atzarakis and his family are going through the worst days of their lives as their elderly mother, Mrs. Fotini Atzarakis, is fighting for her life. Her state of health deteriorated as she tested positive for COVID-19 a few days after she was submitted at St Basil's Homes for the Aged operated by Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia, in Melbourne's suburb of Fawkner. Mr. Atzarakis spoke to SBS Greek.
