Her daughter, Milly, died from cancer aged just 11.

Town fan Jonny, who was born in Almondbury, but now lives with the family in Altrincham, said: “He takes everything in his stride.

He said there was an amusing moment last Christmas when Man United stars Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic visited him in hospital and when asked which team he supported, Dexter suddenly turned into a United fan!
