Joanne Forster, 28, was told by doctors she might never be able to conceive after she and husband Robert, 34, were struck down with two similar types of the killer disease. Former boxer Robert battled non-Hodgkin lymphoma in 2006 before he met Joanne who was diagnosed with Hodgkin Lymphoma in 2008. Doctors told the pair to donate sperm and get eggs frozen but neither had time as they battled their rare types of cancer. But incredibly, Joanne fell pregnant last year and son Henry was born weighing 7lbs 11oz at the Royal Stoke University Hospital nine days early on December 25 at 1.20am.
