'Mummy, I'm sorry for this': Five-year-old boy dies of cancer in mother's arms and apologizes to family for ordeal
Charlie's mother slammed NHS bosses who she said "allowed rich families" to benefit while poor families were neglected after Charlie was denied a liver transplant on the NHS.
A five-year-old boy passed away from cancer in his mother's arms after having apologized to his family for the traumatic ordeal the illness had put them through.
Charlie Proctor, from Accrington, Lancashire was given only days to live by doctors last month, after having been diagnosed with a rare form of liver cancer in the year 2016. His parents had desperately attempted to raise enough money to get him an organ transplant in the US. However, they only managed to get less than half of the £855,580 that they needed. Charlie's smile had captured many people's hearts from his 'Charlie's Chapter' FB page, where his mother would frequently post updates of his hepatoblastoma and the toll that it was taking.
