MUMBAI: Singer Michael Buble's three-year-old son Noah has been reportedly diagnosed with liver cancer.

According to Gente magazine, doctors in Los Angeles confirmed Michael and his wife and actress Luisana Lopilato's worst fears on November 1 after doing a liver biopsy following an initial examination at a clinic in Buenos Aires, reports mirror.co.uk.

He is also said to have started chemotherapy, which is going to last four months.

Luisana's elder sister Daniela told the magazine: “If god wanted it to be discovered that way, it's because he wants to save Noah. Cancer is a horrible illness but we have faith in Noah being able to overcome this.”

“We know he will. The time to start a long and very difficult treatment has come but it's got to be done. They say children are normally strong to put up with chemotherapy and my nephew is a warrior.”
