Heartbreak as Manchester United superfan with 'bucket list' and 'so much to live for' dies the night before his 24th birthday
July 24, 2024
A lifelong Manchester United superfan who dreamed of ticking off his bucket list and had 'so much to live for' tragically died the night before his 24th birthday. Josh Bradford, from Blackpool, passed away on July 21 in hospital surrounded by his loved ones, after his heartbroken family were told he had just hours left to live. In 2022, aged just 21, he knew something was wrong when he began feeling sick, lost weight and was unable to eat or drink. After losing more than three stone over several months, he went to Blackpool Victoria Hospital where doctors found evidence of cancer. What followed was months of grueling rounds of chemotherapy and surgery to remove the tumour and lymph nodes, leaving him with a huge scar across his chest. He had been diagnosed with signet cell carcinoma stomach and esophageal cancer. "They said it was the youngest person they had found with that cancer. He was only 22, and so young. They [the doctors] hoped they could operate and remove it so he could carry on living a normal life.” After 'ringing the bell' to signal the end of his treatment, Danny said that Josh remained under professional care and in March this year, went for a checkup, with his blood results coming back all clear. However, shortly after, Josh started to once again experience the familiar symptoms and warning signs, and started regularly vomiting, was unable to eat or drink and lost a significant amount of weight. Then, on July 12, the family were handed the worst possible news. After full tests and multiple scans, they found he had the cancer again and it was terminal. It had spread to his kidneys, liver, bowel and intestines.
