Widespread tributes and sorrow have been expressed following the death of a Meath teenager who had bravely battled cancer for four years.

In breaking the news on the Help for Slav social media pages, his dad Vlad posted a picture of Slav's hand holding a beloved Lego figure and said: "Yesterday 21st August, our beloved Slav passed away."He fought hard but it was too much for his body tortured for so long. Thank you for all the help, will post about the services later."

The cancer lay undetected in the arch of his foot until it spread into his spine and bone marrow. After gruelling chemotherapy, the family was told that any further treatment would be palliative and not curative. However, Slav suffered a relapse in 2020 and in recent months got the devastating news that the cancer had once again spread, leading Nadia to again search frantically for another solution in the form of umbilical cord cytokine induced killer cells.
