Boy, 3, dies after cancer battle as heartbroken family say 'you're not in pain anymore'

The family of a three-year-old child who died following a cancer battle have paid tribute to their "beautiful boy", saying that he is "no longer in pain". Morgan Ridler, who was diagnosed with a rare and complex form of cancer in October 2021 at the age of just two, passed away on Wednesday, June 28.

His parents, Natalie and Matthew, had been told after a relapse that his treatment was not working and the focus would move to palliative care. As reported by Wales Online, hundreds of people lined the streets of Swansea to give Morgan an unforgettable day, which included a drive-by from dozens of supercars including a Mercedes F1 car just last week.

The youngster also got a chance to ride for the first time in a plane with his parents. However, on Monday, Morgan's parents shared the update that everyone was dreading by announcing that Morgan was to be moved to Ty Hafan hospice as he was in "increasing pain".
