THE heartbroke­n mum of Bradley Lowery posted this poignant photo of the six-year-old and his big brother, with the message: “My two boys, my world, my everything.”

The picture shows football mascot Bradley hooked up to pain relief medication, snuggled up to Kieran, 15.

Gemma, 34, told this week how Bradley was “deteriorat­ing fast” as he battles a rare cancer.

She said: “We knew this was coming.”

Around 24,000 Facebook followers sent messages of sympathy, one calling her “the bravest mum ever”. Just before Christmas, Gemma and husband Carl, 34, of Blackhall Colliery, Co Durham, were told the neuroblast­oma is terminal. The youngster was befriended by England striker Jermain Defoe, who last night confirmed his move from Sunderland, by saying: “The highlight of my time has to be walking out with Bradley against Everton.” With the Bradley Lowery foundation, his parents have raised over £800,000 to help child cancer sufferers.
