Cancer patient’s unusual dying wish granted

An eight-year-old terminal cancer patient was stunned when his bizarre final dream became reality.

An eight-year-old terminal cancer patient who wanted to be famous in China has had his dream come true.

Dorian Murray has been battling his disease since he was four. He recently told his dad that he “would like to be famous in China … because they have that bridge.” (He meant the Great Wall.)

His dream was shared on Facebook , which is blocked in China, and millions have now shared it on an equivalent site, called Weibo.

“Little Fighter, I am in Shenzhen and I wish you strongly fight against this disease,” said one user, while another shows a man holding a sign reading, “G’day Dorian. You’re famous in Australia!”
