Heartbroken mum takes eight-year-old son home for 'big party' to spend final days

The mum of a terminally ill child says her family has been "inundated" with kindness since taking her son home to live out his final days.

Caoimhin Adams, eight, has been diagnosed with ROHHAD - a condition with no cure or options for treatment. His body has been slowly shutting down with his family organising a "big party" for him while there is still time.

His mum, Catriona, from Belfast, said her son has always been a "special boy" who beat the odds when he was born and has lived as full a life as possible. Now, the family have brought him home to enjoy a "big party" during his final days.
