ETHAN Connolly has come out fighting!
He’s just been awarded his purple belt for his martial arts class and couldn’t be more thrilled.
He demonstrated his best moves for Warrington Guardian photographer Ian Park.
The four-year-old, from Well Lane, Penketh, is excitedly looking forward to his birthday next month and wants a Star Wars themed party.
He is recovering from his most recent surgery, which removed cysts from behind his eye and jaw.
“We’re really happy with the results, it has stayed quite flat and everything seems to be healing really well,” said his mum, Karen.
He understands now why he needs operations and is happier going for them, she said.
“He’s really excited about being back at school after Easter. He’s run all the way there every day,” she said.
