Young Co Derry boy attends first school sport's day after a year of tough cancer treatment

A young boy from Co Derry attended his first school's sports day last week after a tough year going through cancer treatment.

Niall Donaghy, six, from Ballykelly was diagnosed with leukemia in March of last year after complaining of having a sore leg for a number of months and quickly underwent an intensive course of treatment that left him in intensive care.

Speaking to Belfast Live, his mum Elle said that she had taken her son to the doctor a couple of times prior to his diagnosis due to the pain that he was in and it was not until their third visit that they got the life-changing news.
