Join young Finn’s vlog on YouTube, asks Dad
Ten-year-old Finn Clancy, whose dad Oisin is from Portadown, is hoping to get more subscribers to the YouTube channel he set up while going through cancer treatment. Finn, who is battling cancer in his spine and pelvis, has kept a ‘jolly’ temperament despite rigorous chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment.
His dad said his son is now in palliative care and hopes to bring him home soon from Great Ormond Street Hospital. Throughout his therapy the youngster has immersed himself in his own YouTube channel updating it with regular podcasts.
And he is getting quite a following, however Oisin is hoping that the public will rally round and subscribe to the boy’s channel to bring his audience up to 1000. Finn’s mum, Lorraine Mitchell from Leigh-on-Sea, found a piece of paper in his school bag a few months back which said: ‘Note to self: Be Jolly!’ and this sums up the lad’s temperament.
