"Arsenal fan Jesse Brown pictured with star striker Kai Havertz - was diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma at just 16-months-old after complaining of abdominal pain at night. He underwent 12 months of chemotherapy at Great Ormond Street Hospital but in spring this year routine scans revealed that Jesse's pelvic tumour had begun to rapidly grow again. Jesse has been offered specialised chemotherapy by German doctors which parents Simon and Anna Brown believe could significantly increase the chances of successful surgery and improve his long-term prognosis."
"He told the Standard Jesse wants to be a policeman when he's older so he can lock up the baddies. Mr Brown, of Finsbury Park, added: He's a super bright boy with a great sense of humour, who likes telling jokes and is witty. Jesse is observant, brave, resilient, positive, loyal, honest and a problem solver. He loves singing, playing music, sports and reading."
Jesse Brown, age four, was diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma at 16 months after abdominal pain and received 12 months of chemotherapy at Great Ormond Street Hospital. Routine scans in spring showed rapid regrowth of a pelvic tumour. German doctors have offered specialised chemotherapy that parents Simon and Anna Brown believe could improve the chances of successful surgery and long-term prognosis; that treatment is not available through the NHS. The family is fundraising at Christmas to send Jesse abroad for pioneering care. Jesse enjoys music, sports and reading, met Kai Havertz, and has a younger brother, Jonah, aged 10 months.
