hi my son vinnie who has only just turned 3 was diagnosed with the above tumor in January this year

He was operated on and has had high dose chemo,

unfortunatly the cancer has come back and spread to he’s spine, they have put him back on chemo but have informed us there is nothing they can do

I just want a second opinion if there is anyone that could help me please

thanks Karl

Hello Karl
I'm so sorry to hear about the news that you've recently been given. It's understandable that you want a second opinion for your son.
We do have some information here on our website about how to do this. If you'd like to speak to one of our nurses for some further advice and support you can call them on 0808 800 4040 (Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm).
Best wishes,
Jenn
