A 20-year-old student who beat cancer has died just two weeks after suffering flu-like symptoms.
Josh Abbott-Littler rang the 'all clear' bell at The Christie cancer hospital in south Manchester in May 2024 after successfully undergoing chemotherapy and proton beam therapy to tackle his Hodgkin lymphoma.
But a year later, after reporting chest pains, he was back in hospital where he was treated for pneumonia and sepsis.
Josh, from Wigan, was eventually diagnosed with treatment-induced acute myeloid leukaemia - a rare, aggressive form of leukaemia triggered by certain cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy or radiation.
He was re-admitted to The Christie, where he died on June 26 from sepsis caused by a bacterial infection.
