Michael Buble’s son, Noah, has been diagnosed with cancer after an unexpected trip to the doctor took a setback for the worse.
Little Noah, who just turned three years in September, traveled to the United States with his mother, Luisana Lopilato, and his father Michael after they worry about their health.
In a statement posted on Facebook of Luisana, Michael said: “We are devastated by the recent diagnosis of cancer of our oldest son, Noah, who is currently in treatment in the United States.
“We’ve always talked a lot about the importance of the family and the love we have for our children.
“Luisana and I are going to spend all our time and attention to help Noah to get better, by suspending our professional activities for now.
“During this difficult time, we ask that you pray for him and please respect our privacy. We have a long road ahead of us and we hope that with the support of our family, friends, fans around the world and our faith in God, we can win this battle.”
According to Perez Hilton‘s blog, Noah’s doctor first thought he was suffering from mumps, but further investigation revealed it was cancer.

It comes a year after Noah was hospitalised with serious burns after he climbed on their kitchen worktop and poured boiling water over himself.

Michael, who was in the US at the time, dropped everything to fly home to Argentina to be with his family.

Noah luckily avoided having skin grafts to treat his six per cent burns, but still needed daily dressings to heal his scalded skin.
After Noah’s recovery, Luisana admitted that she often asks herself how the accident happened, and said the little boy “complains” every day when she’s dressing his wounds.
“At one point the doctors told me they’d have to do skin grafts but thank God it started healing little by little. For a long time he has to use elastic bands pressed tight so he’s not left with scars,” she added.
Since then, Michael and Luisana have had their second baby boy , Elias Buble, born in January 2016.
