U.K. Doctor Diagnoses Boy With Leukemia Via Facebook
No joke—after Philip Rice posted on the social network a photo of his son, Ted, the doctor and family friend saw the image and recognized the boy’s rash as a symptom of leukemia.
He sent a message to Philip saying he should take his son to the hospital immediately. The boy is now going through a three-year-course of chemotherapy.
Philip and his wife were told their son has a 75 percent chance of surviving. ”That photo probably saved us,” Philip told The Sun.
