Bradley mum blasts ghouls

BRAVE football mascot Bradley Lowery’s mum has begged social media users to stop asking if he is dead.

The six-year-old Sunderland fan, gravely ill with cancer neuroblastoma, has had worldwide support.

But mum Gemma wrote on Facebook she would ignore suggestions of alternative cures and added: “I don’t like to read messages asking if he has died yet.”

Bradley, of Blackhall, Co Durham, has become close friends with the Black Cats’ striker Jermain Defoe.
