Grant gets hits with a string of bad news…

There are times in life where you feel that the world is against you. For Grant Sanderson, who is from Queensland, Australia, was told that he was no longer able to have kids because of his radiation treatment he needed as he was battling stage four cancer.

Back in 2011, Grant was told that he had brain cancer. It was so severe that if he didn’t receive treatment he would have less than a week to live. The news terrified him and his family. During his treatment, doctors told Grant that he will be infertile because of the radiation treatments that was used to battle his cancer. 

So not only was Grant trying to defeat cancer he was also trying to come to grip the fact that he would never be able to have a child again. Grant’s wife, Sheridan Sanderson has a daughter

from a previous relationship, but Grant and his wife wanted to try to have a baby to add to their family.

Grant’s outlook on life…

Grant told an online outlet, Femail that “After we got engaged we knew we wanted to have a baby. Sheridan has a beautiful daughter from a past relation. [She] wanted so much to be a big sister and of course I wanted so much to be a dad. It was very sad to think that I would not be able to have children, all I have ever wanted was to have a son. Right before I started treatment the doctors pulled me aside and said that if I ever wanted to have children I would need to have sperm frozen as there would be almost no chance after putting my body through chemo and radiation.”

Things changing for the better…

Grant followed his doctor’s advice and had his sperm frozen, but because his body was fighting cancer his sperm count was low. Things seemed to be bleak, but then Grant and his family got some amazing news. He was told that the cancer was gone which gave him a new outlook on life.

Then to make life even sweeter his wife told him that She was pregnant. Last year in October, Grant and his family welcomed Dylan into the family. Grant always wanted a son. He got that wish and truly feels blessed. We are happy to hear that Grant is cancer free and he will be there for his family!
