Some GOOD news for a change. The little boy looks adorable and the Mother must have been going through agonies all through her treatment, worrying about whether he would survive.
I wish then all the luck in the world. As a breast cancer 'survivor' I know first hand of all the worries that are experienced whilst undergoing treatment and or operations.To actually give birth to a healthy baby after all of that is a well deserved result.At last some news to make us smile and be thankful.
