This is a feel good story and one that reflects very well on Spurs and England striker Harry Kane. Genuinely nice move by him to tweet this young fella.
The initial tweet was from Specialist Paediatric Radiographer Liam Herbert at Birmingham’s Queen Elizabeth Hospital. They always do something special for the kiddies when they have finished their course of treatment. Little Ben asked for the World Cup and that’s what he got.

Luke added… and yes, there is a link to the fundraising page so this article IS a massive hint!

But then, along came the man of the moment, Harry Kane
Hi Ben, I've seen your video and you are an inspiration. Carry on fighting and we'll do everything we can on Saturday to keep a smile on your face! #BensWorldCup https://t.co/2Hgo3IC2lb

How lovely is that? And bless young Ben, I’m sure he’s in all our thoughts (and those who believe, prayers)
Come on then lovely folks, even just a fiver would be hugely appreciated by the QE doing such great work. https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/bensworldcup
