Following weeks of testing, two-year-old Tommy Paul Quinn was diagnosed with Stage 4 High-Risk Neuroblastoma, which has a 50 per cent survival rate.
A toddler whose stomach pains were initially thought to be constipation has been diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer. Tommy Paul Quinn, from Bishopbriggs near Glasgow , felt unwell after returning from a family holiday in January.
Nicole told Glasgow Live: "We had given him something to drink when we got home and we woke to find he had been sick everywhere. I just had a feeling that we needed to take him back because something wasn't right. He wasn't his usual self but never in my wildest dreams did I imagine it was what it would turn out to be."
"Tommy had his scan the next day. The radiologist left the room and returned a while later advising the consultant would see us in the ward. We knew then something serious was going on." However, cheeky chappy Tommy hasn't let the diagnosis keep him down, the mum revealed. She said: "He is blissfully unaware he is so sick. He'll be attached to four or five chemo lines and doing forward rolls in the ward. Me and David have to chase him with the machines when he is on his scuttle bug to make sure he doesn't go too far away.
