He through his own words and descriptions, about his battle with him continuing. The 75-year-old criminalist has spoken openly about the health problem he is facing, when he was informed by doctors, the surgery he performed and the treatments he continues. His words and general attitude of life send messages of strength and hope to all who face similar problems with him. In his confessions, Alexis Kouyas has reported learning about cancer after a highway accident in October 2021. A few months later, he tested earlier than he planned and the results showed that cancer markers were high. “The doctor called me and told me I had cancer,” the criminal lawyer said in an interview. CORVERSE At that time Alexis Kouyas chose to march alone on his Calvary. He preferred not to say anything to his two children. As he had said in October 2023, in an interview with Action 24, his son eventually called him and his words moved him. “He told me that his friend’s father died and that from now on he only wants me to tell him the truth,” the 75-year-old said with his eyes. It was October 11, 2021 when Alexis Kouyas came out alive from this jeep that he was driving, when this was nailed to a truck, on the highway, in the Velestino-Aerino section. Criminalist is driven with fractures to a hospital and a few months later, in January 2022, he finds that he has cancer. Like he said if he didn’t have this car accident, he’d be doing the tests in the summer. “Because of an accident in my car, which my life was miraculously saved, instead of the annual general check up, I was subjected to an emergency six months earlier than planned. It was found after a nuclear medicine examination that the cancer had infected my lymph nodes at an embryonic stage,” he said in his announcement, when his health reports had begun to multiply. CORVERSE Surgery finally takes place in the summer of 2022 and doctors then appear reassuring. “Without informing anyone, they were admitted to the hospital and undergoing six-hour surgery where they were removed by robotic method, apart from carcinogenic, preventive, thirty-nine more lymph nodes” had been written by Alexis Kouyas. The doctors recommend rest. They assure him after surgery that his life is not in danger. At that time, in the summer of 2022, he not only did not abstain from professional obligations, but assumed the defense of Roula Pispiringu, who was then to be tried for the deaths of her children. “This unexpected development in my life has helped me to understand, unfortunately in the worst way, what really people love and care about me and who, especially in recent years, have just used my science and my whole personality,” said the 75-year-old criminalist today. Alexis Kouyas always continues in the lead and shows that inside and outside the courtroom he is a fighter. A man who doesn’t stop fighting. A personality who knows how to give it all up to victory.
