A family is coming to terms with the heartbreaking news that a much-loved little boy has been diagnosed with leukaemia at the age of five.
Jaxen Judge was diagnosed with the aggressive cancer, acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, "around seven weeks ago" and is currently receiving treatment at Newcastle's Royal Victoria Infirmary. He has started chemotherapy and had a range of difficult medical procedures.
But despite battling the rare disease, his aunt Stephanie Dumble has told of how the "happy, bubbly" little boy continues to have a smile on his face.
