After over 3 years, Josh rang the bell to signal the end of chemotherapy treatment. He now enters 5 years of checks without chemo to make sure the leukaemia doesn't return. After that, he will be classed as officially "cured" #leukaemia #childhoodcancer

This little superhero started high school yesterday and then had a surgery today to remove a port-a-cath through which he received a number of chemo doses in earlier stages of his leukaemia treatment. He finishes treatment in July 2024 after 3 1/2 yrs - he is my idol ❤️🎗

So, this little trooper had his first proper half day back in school after a lockdown and leukaemia treatment. First time in school since Dec 2020! He was a star and slipped right back into the routines - so proud of him! #PrimaryRocks

Taking two days to spend with these two superheroes and my incredible wife (who prob wouldn't want me sharing a photo of her, don't know why) 8yo starts his most intensive phase of chemo this week - wish him luck (nearly didn't make it to Lakes after hospital visit yesterday!)

On March 1st 2021, our beautiful 8-year-old, Joshua was diagnosed with T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia. Thankfully, his prognosis is very good and his Consultant is confident he will be able to not only get Joshua into remission, but CURE our incredibly brave boy!!

Update on my son: in 2 weeks another test will be done to decide what intensity of treatment he will need for his "maintenance phase" - expected to be the standard level because his body has responded so well to treatment and so he expects he will be in remission in 2 weeks time

Just spend a brilliant week in sunny Anglesey. Much needed to recharge the batteries and a miracle our 8yo was able to be there for most of it - needed a trip back to RMCH for his blood counts but otherwise he was there when 5 months ago we thought there'd be no chance 🌅🌅
