But after enjoying Christmas dinner with his grandparents the youngster collapsed in a nearby park hours later.
He complained of being unable to breathe before calling his mum and falling ill, reports Cheshire Live.
Louise desperately rushed to Wharton Recreation Park to give Cason - who suffered from asthma and a nut allergy - a shot from his epinephrine autoinjector.
