A doctor who died from a rare brain tumour wrote two children's books for his three-year-old son as a final heartbreaking gift.
Paediatrician Aria Nikjooy, from Manchester, was just 27 when he was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumour in November 2018.
Despite having the tumour removed, the cancer returned several times before spreading to his spine.
