His mum, Rebecca Budd, says the family have been “devastated” by the shock diagnosis.
Osteosarcoma is the most common type of bone cancer, which mostly affects children and young adults under 20. These symptoms can be caused by many things other than cancer. However, any persistent bone pain should be checked by your child’s doctor. Symptoms are often attributed to a sporting injury. As the football-mad youngster and his family will need to travel constantly between Manchester and Birmingham, an appeal has been launched to help them through the cost of living crisis. Incredibly, it topped £10,000 in just one week, with donations coming in from the local community, football clubs and supporters around the region.
