A devastated family has vowed to keep the promise they made to a "lovable" son and friend who tragically passed away aged 20.
Tom Linton was diagnosed with melanoma, a severe form of skin cancer, in January 2020 when he was aged 19 and passed away mere months later in May, just after his 20th birthday.
However, the selfless son from County Durham, asked his family to grant him his final wish - to promise him that they would raise awareness of melanoma so that no other person would have to go through what he went through, Chronicle Live reports.
