The family of a teenager who has come home to the North East after being told the devastating news he had just days left to live have said that's he's "not scared at all".
Family and friends of Dylan Reid, 14 who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in November 2020, came to Ouseburn to surprise him and his immediate family with the unveiling of a mural in his honour. Dylan was diagnosed with the aggressive and rare cancer just weeks after moving from the North East to Liverpool with his mum Kelly Ann Moore.
The 14-year-old has had surgery to remove a tumour and underwent three intense rounds of chemotherapy to kill the cancerous cells in his blood. Tragically, doctors at Ronald McDonald house told Dylan and his family that nothing more could be done to treat him, and he has returned to his home in Tyneside for his final days.
