Because of his age Sam received most of his treatment on a children&rsquo;s ward. His intense treatment and care were brilliant but there were no suitable facilities for teenagers: no mobile phone reception, no internet and the television went off at 9pm. It was a lonely place leaving him feeling isolated and cut off.</span><span style="background: black; padding: 0cm; border: 1pt black; color: black; font-size: 0pt; layout-grid-mode: line; mso-border-alt: none black 0cm; mso-font-width: 0%; mso-ansi-language: X-NONE; mso-fareast-language: X-NONE; mso-bidi-language: X-NONE;"> </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Sam lived in Somerset and his treatment was based at the Bristol Children&rsquo;s Hospital.
