A two-year-old boy had to learn to walk again after a rare cancer caused him to lose muscle mass in his legs.
Max Kirk, 2, was diagnosed with a rare cancer called bilateral Wilms tumours on his second birthday in December 2021. Since then he has undergone extensive treatment at Alder Hey Children's Hospital including chemotherapy.
Max, from Tarvin, had an adverse reaction to the chemotherapy which impacted his liver function, meaning he was laid up for three weeks. This resulted in him having to learn to walk again earlier this year due to losing muscle mass in his legs.
