"Toby had an urgent CT scan of his head on Friday this is when we received the devastating news that Toby now has a brain tumour."

Little Toby, aged five, has been battling stage 4 Neuroblastoma since his 4th birthday.

The family had previously announced in July that Toby was in remission from his cancer.

His family - backed by Leeds United - launched a campaign that managed to raise the £200,000 needed to pay for antibody treatment, which was not available on the NHS.
