A seven-year-old boy has died of cancer after complaining of a tummy ache.
Young Feliks Jama first visited the doctors about his stomach cramps two years ago.
An 8cm tumour was found on his kidney along with other others on his lungs and abdomen.
He underwent treatment, including radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and the tumours were surgically removed.
But some of them grew back, and the boy had to restart treatment at the hospital in his hometown of Dolsk in Poland.
Last November, his family thought they had made a breakthrough as he appeared to be improving.
But tests later revealed that the kidney cancer, known as Wilms’ tumour, had returned, as reported by Need To Know.
Felik’s parents found treatment options at a clinic in Germany, but it proved to be ineffective, and they returned to Poland after less than a month.
He died on Sunday (14 Sept).
A spokesperson for the Piece of Heaven Foundation said, “It is with great sadness that we inform you that our little Feliks has lost his battle with a terrible disease.
“Although our hearts are breaking with pain, we trust that he rests in peace and is surrounded by a love that cannot be broken.
“We now have our own saint in Heaven who intercedes for us.
“We ask for your prayerful support during this difficult time, especially for Felik’s parents, for whom we offer our sincerest condolences.”
Earlier this year, the foundation launched an online crowdfunding campaign on behalf of Felik’s family to cover his medical expenses abroad, rehabilitation, and medical consultations.
The crowdfunder drew the support of 11,330 people.
Together, they raised a total of £224.653 (1.1 million PLN).
