Doctors found two tumours on the left side of his brain.

Harry's mum said to camera: "I knew I was going to lose my son at some point.
"We got home and he said to me, 'Mum, am I going to be here for Christmas?'...
"And I couldn't answer."
Harry explained to the camera that he wanted to plan his own funeral because his parents had been through enough already.

"I just want to plan my funeral because I don't want my parents to have to do it, they're suffering enough as it is.
"It must be terrible for them," he said.
Nicole, the rest of the celebrities and the regular cast of the Channel 4 show fought back the tears as they listened to his story.
As Stephen wiped away his tears, he said to his son, daughter and wife: "No parent should have to bury their child.
"Did you see the bravery and humility in that beautiful young man?"
Those watching at home were also very touched by the young boy's bravery.
One said: "I welled up watching Harry's story."
"Oh Harry! Oh gogglebox! You got me I know this story well," another said.
