A teenage cancer survivor has spoken out about his journey, where he was diagnosed at 11. Sam Amess went on holiday to Morocco and felt like he had a 'stitch' which turned out to be a tumour.
Sam was diagnosed with a stage four liver tumour shortly before his 12th birthday. He was confined to a wheelchair for months, and says at one point, hospice care was being discussed, Hull Live reports.
He is now in great health, and plans to undertake a challenge to raise money for a charity that supports those going through what he went through. Sam will be running 5k on Sunday, July 3 to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
