At first, Mark’s pain seemed small —
maybe growing pains or a pulled muscle 🦵✨.
But it didn’t fade.
It grew stronger, stealing his nights 😔🌙 and leaving his young body exhausted 🤒💤.

Then came the diagnosis that changed everything:
Ewing sarcoma 💔🩺.

For 19 long months, Mark fought with remarkable bravery.
He endured chemotherapy 💉,
a stem cell transplant 🌱,
and radiotherapy ☢️ —
each step demanding strength no child should ever need.

And then, hope returned 🌈.
Scans came back clear ✅.Life slowly found its way back to him.

He returned to school 📚.
To swimming 🏊.
To football ⚽.
To laughter 😂.
To living again.

But in January, heartbreak struck once more 💔.
The cancer returned — this time spreading to his lungs 🌬️.

Now, every day is a struggle 😓.
Every step is a battle 🦶⚔️.

Yet through it all, Mark’s courage remains —
strong, steady, and deeply inspiring 🤍✨.
His story is a reminder of resilience in the face of the unimaginable.
