spread to his brain<\/strong>.<\/p>\nDespite previously being told that he may only have months to live, and recently sharing that he feels \u2018a lot weaker\u2019, the 49-year-old\u00a0is being living his life to the full, both in his work and precious family time.<\/p>\n
On Monday, he shared a poignant \u2018last ever\u2019 as he took his four-year-old son Rex to nursery for the day.<\/p>\n
He also shares two-year-old twins Rafa and Cormac with his wife, Jessica Holmes.<\/p>\n
\u2018Last EVER ride to nursery with Rex. Suitably waved off by Rafa and his spade and Rex with his game face on!\u2019 the doting dad captioned his post.<\/p>\n

Jonnie shared a trio of photos from the moment to mark the occasion, which showed Rex on his little bike, kitted out in a cool Batman helmet and cycling gloves, with his dad behind him on his, as they posed for a picture in the driveway.<\/p>\n
Rafa was also involved, holding his yellow spade in the foreground.<\/p>\n
The TV star then shared another picture of Rex mid-ride on the way to nursery, as well as a selfie of them both during a pause on their journey, with Jonnie in a blue neck scarf, dark green jacket and baseball cap.<\/p>\n
As always, his fans heaped praise on Jonnie for his positivity in the face of adversity.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n
\u2018Jonnie you are truly inspiring,\u2019 posted one, while someone else added: \u2018Johnny [sic], you\u2019re a credit and an inspiration.\u2019<\/p>\n
\u2018Lovely photos Jonnie. Your boys will remember these moments forever. Sending love and best wishes \u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f,\u2019 shared a third.<\/p>\n
The father-of-three was recently commended for continuing to work despite his ill health.<\/p>\n
Just last week, he shared a job he had done with a company called Mayfair Worktops where he visited a couple to speak about renovations that they\u2019d made to their home.<\/p>\n
In a post shared on Instagram with a clip of his meeting with the couple, Jonnie wrote in the caption: \u2018If you\u2019re not happy with the worktop choice offered by the developer you can source one yourself- that\u2019s what this couple did so I went to have a nose!\u2026\u2019<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Mayfair Worktops confirmed in a post that Jonnie was \u2018back\u2019, before adding \u2018not that he ever really went away\u2019.<\/p>\n
Sharing more details on their collaboration, the company wrote: \u2018In the first part of our much-reported film, Jonnie meets home owners Howard and Jade, who tell us exactly why they decided to replace existing, brand new worktops with our beautiful Grey Starlight Quartz.\u2019<\/p>\n
In the comments underneath Jonnie\u2019s post, he received high praise for the way in which he\u2019s still persevering with his work despite what he\u2019s going through in life.<\/p>\n
\u2018Wow what an amazing man, trying your best to give your family everything you can \u2764\ufe0f,\u2019 one person wrote, referencing his wife and three young children.<\/p>\n
\u2018Great to see you working, you are my favourite presenter on Escape to the Country. I am so sorry for everything that you\u2019re going through. You are a fantastic family man and such an inspiration to us all. Love you Jonnie \u2764\ufe0f,\u2019 another said.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
He has also been enjoying further quality time with his family, enjoying a recent day out with his boys.<\/p>\n
\u2018Front seat on the Metro riding with uncle @stuart.j.kane\u2019, he captioned the pic, with his sons wide-eyed and open-mouthed with joy next to him.<\/p>\n
Jonnie also wore a smile as he snapped the pic, wearing a jumper and waterproof coat with a cap on his head.<\/p>\n
Later on, he took to the comments to give an update on his condition.<\/p>\n
\u2018Felling ok is the new feeling great! Make the most! X\u2019, he proclaimed.<\/p>\n
https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CvXJW94IQhc\/<\/p>\n
His followers then flocked to the comments to send their love.<\/p>\n
\u2018Love this pic mate! I\u2019ve said before your strength is astounding mate\u2019, one person complimented.<\/p>\n
\u2018Great to see you getting out and about. \u2764\ufe0f, another added.<\/p>\n
Jonnie\u2019s three kids remain\u00a0unaware of his terminal cancer,\u00a0<\/strong>as he doesn\u2019t want to \u2018confuse\u2019 them.<\/p>\n<\/i>Macmillan cancer support<\/h2>\n
