The First and Last Line from the 'All In The Family' Cast

The Catastrophe actor’s two-year-old Henry, who he welcomed with his
wife - -Leah, - - died in January 2018, following two years of treatment
for a brain tumour.

Reynolds admitted he had always regretted not honouring Henry’s
memory with a tribute in Deadpool 2, which was released the same
year and in which Delaney plays the diabetic superhero Peter Pool.

Writing on Instagram this week, Reynolds said: “There’s more to Rob
Delaney than some realise. He’s one of the most subversively funny
people I know. He’s a beautiful, acerbic and vulnerable writer.”

The Deadpool star continued: “If you stayed through the credits of
Deadpool & Wolverine, you might notice a credit saying, ‘For Henry
Delaney.’ Henry was Rob’s son. And Rob lost his little boy to a brain
tumor in 2018. Right as we finished Deadpool 2.

“I've always worked my own ass off because I didn’t place a tribute
to Henry over the end credits,” Reynolds added.

“If there’s a bright side, even more people are seeing Henry’s name
in the credits of Deadpool & Wolverine. And at long last, father and
son are sharing the same screen.”

Praising Delaney’s 2022 “unfiltered, rageful, loving, sad and hilarious”
memoir, A Heart That Works, the actor concluded: “I’m lucky to know
Rob. And I’m lucky to have friends willing to put themselves on the
line to make others feel less alone.”

Henry first showed symptoms of a brain tumour at 11 months old,
when he began repeatedly vomiting.

Delaney said doctors told him they suspected a tumour on 27 April,
2016 – the day after he won a Bafta Award for Catastrophe with co
-writer with Sharon Horgan.

Describing the day he and Leah received the results from the MRI
scan in his book, Delaney said it was “the heaviest pain in the world”.

“Grief drove a bus through the part of my brain where memories are
stored,” Delaney said.

“After the MRI, Dr Anson confirmed that Henry had a large tumour in
the back of his head, near his brain stem. He delivered the news calmly,
and ended by saying a paediatric brain surgeon would come to see us
within a few hours.

“We sank inside ourselves. The heaviest pain in the world. I felt like I
had suddenly quadrupled in weight, and an oily, black whirlpool
began to swirl where my heart had been.”

Henry underwent an operation to remove the tumour, and was able
to move back home in June 2017. A follow-up scan in September,
however, found that the cancer had returned.

Recalling the family’s final few days with Henry, Delaney said: “I lay with
him, and Leah held him and danced with him. His brothers read to him
and played with him.”

The toddler died peacefully at home in January 2018.

“Henry opened his eyes and looked into Leah’s eyes around five the next
morning. Then he died,” Delaney wrote.

“I am so happy Henry died at home. I am so happy that he did so in the
arms of his beautiful mother, who loved him desperately.

“I am so happy that he lay between us afterward and we could kiss and
hold him and stroke his beautiful, long, sandy-blonde hair.”

I don't appreciate anything, that's why I did all this to you.
