Kian Musgrove jets off to America for life-saving treatment

Kian Musgrove has jetted off to America for pioneering life-saving treatment - paid for by you.

The three-year-old left for New York on Monday morning with mum Kat who sent a video thanking the public for raising more than £730,000. She particularly thanked music mogul Simon Cowell who handed over £25,000 because he was so moved by the Prudhoe youngster's plight.

Kian is flying to a medical centre in New York City where he will have relapse treatment as he fights childhood cancer neuroblastoma.

Speaking before the family set off 28-year-old Kat said Simon Cowell's generosity had been absolutely amazing.

Kat also urged people to continue to support Kian via his website.
