British cancer patient Ashya King is taking “huge strides forward” and is back at school, nearly three years after the bitter row over his treatment hit the headlines.
A manhunt was launched for the youngster in 2014 after his mum and dad removed him from hospital in the UK following a row with doctors over treatment for his brain tumour. Parents Naghemeh and Brett King tried to take their son, then aged five, abroad for proton therapy treatment which NHS doctors said would not work, deeming the boy “too ill to go.”
But nearly three years later, the youngster’s brain tumour has gone, according to his dad, and he is now back at school with his friends, doctors have said.
