They all laid on the bed having cuddles I think it was his way of saying his good byes. Late last night his best friend Jermain came to visit him and it was so heart warming seeing how Bradley reacted. He was so happy and laid for ages getting cuddles. Bradley was really relaxed with him.
The family also went on to thank well-wishers who have shared messages of support for Bradley after this latest development.
Our thoughts are with Bradley and the Lowery family during this difficult time.
