The family of a schoolboy in remission from leukaemia has slammed a Lanarkshire A&E, after their son failed to get treatment for a potentially life-threatening infection.
Mark Cannon, 11, from Strathaven - known as 'Wee Mark' - was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, a very aggressive form of blood cancer, last August.
He had to be taken to Hairmyres A&E in East Kilbride earlier this month after his temperature soared to 39.4 and he was later diagnosed with a chest infection.
