'The Mighty Quinn' battled brain cancer twice. Now it's his father's turn.
Briefly

Quinn Waters, a 9-year-old boy from Weymouth, celebrated a clean brain scan on March 31, a significant milestone in his battle against medulloblastoma, which began when he was just three. Known as "The Mighty Quinn," his story of courage captured global attention. However, as Quinn looked forward to family summer plans, his father, Jarlath, faced his own health crisis, with signs of a brain issue becoming apparent ahead of a trip to Ireland. This contrast of hope and uncertainty embodies the Waters family’s journey through illness and recovery.
"It was like breathing a breath of fresh air," Quinn's mother, Tara, told Boston.com.
