I read this with great sadness.

My own daughter Lilly, also aged six, has been being treated for leukaemia since a few days after her fourth birthday.

I've been to the hospital with her this afternoon where she had, what I pray will be, her last significant chemotherapy treatment.

She is scheduled to have minor surgery next Tuesday to remove her port, and then her oral chemo stops in July.

I can't even begin to describe what it's like seeing one of your own children go through something like this, even when it seems you have a successful outcome.

One of Lillys school friends (same year) was also diagnosed with leukaemia and very sadly lost her fight in February this year.

Lilly was hospitalised on Christmas Day with a serious infection (has happened numerous times over the last 2.5yrs) and was supported by the critical care team, permanently on oxygen and various antibiotics before pulling through and being discharged on 3rd January.

During this time the other little girl was also in, but very sadly did not get out when Lilly did and subsequently lost her fight in early February.

The doctors are superb, but it is the nurses that are amazing. It is the nurses that spent night after night looking after my gorgeous little girl, giving her the chance that she now has.

I don't know how the nurses cope, it's not just a job, they really bond with the children. When you're just so exhausted that you can't stay awake at 4.00am, it's the nurses that support your child, physically, emotionally... in every way.

Unfortunately Mother Nature can be a complete b1tch...

My heart goes out to Bradley's family...

My unending gratitude goes out to the underpaid, overworked angels that care for our children as if they were there own... the nurses are my heroes, along with my little Lilly x

All the best for the future mate, to you, Lilly and everyone concerned. I can't begin to imagine.

Unbelievable what some cretins will do. Words fail me.

Looks like it's only a matter of time now for Bradley. So sad.

Think I share the same view as everyone else when I hate seeing this thread on the first page and dread opening it.

Genuinely sad reading these updates, can't imagine what his family are going through.

He's going to break the hearts of a nation when the day does come .. A name and smile we'll never forget though

There are good people and bad people in every race, colour, creed and religion. That will never change.

Hopefully young Bradley's life will be an inspiration to others to try and enjoy every day no matter how dark the world may seem.

God bless you little sir.

I've been truly hoping for a miracle for this little lad, my son isn't much older and I can't even imagine the pain his family is going through. He is a true inspiration and has remained so brave and positive despite his illness. he is a credit to his family. Keep fighting Bradley.

Will shed a tear for this wee man. I have a 4 year old and cannot imagine the pain.

God bless the family who gave him an amazing life while he could enjoy it.

Beautiful boy, all we can take from this is when he sadly passes he passed knowing everybody loved him.

Anything else will break your heart.

Met a Newcastle fan in Prague today and within minutes we were speaking about young Bradley...both agree that rivalries just aren't important at times

Hi Guy Lynn here...........

Update on brad is....he is very weak and finding breathing difficult but he is fighting it. He insisted on having a party and he invited his cousins and girlfriend poppy yesterday. They all laid on the bed having cuddles I think it was his way of saying his good byes. Late last night his best friend jermain come to visit him and it was so heart warming seeing how Bradley reacted. He was so happy and laid for ages getting cuddles. Bradley was really relaxed with him.

Thank you again for your support, although we are getting a lot of messages and comments, we are going to get through them all eventually, as your words do really mean a lot to us all x x
