A young boy with an "infectious" grin tragically passed away during an operation to try and save his life. Bradley James George Tweedy, 12, could not talk or eat but charmed those around him with his massive smile.
The child, from Bedlington, Northumberland, was born with a number of health conditions and spent the first year of his life in hospital. When he arrived into the world six weeks early, he was diagnosed with a diaphragmatic hernia - which caused the organs in his abdomen to move up into the right side of his chest.
The youngster was also born with two oesophagus conditions. The top of his oesophagus did not form properly and was not connected to his stomach, Chronicle Live reports.
