<p>Actor Nick Cannon is mourning the loss of his youngest child, baby boy Zen. Cannon announced on his daytime show 'Nick Cannon' that his five-month-old son Zen had died of brain cancer. Cannon shares the baby with model Alyssa Scott.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"Today is a special one y`all for many reasons but it`s not gonna be an easy one. I haven`t even shared this with anybody, not even the crew. I had a very tough weekend," Cannon began. The talk show host said that they took Zen to the doctor when he was 2 months old after they noticed his head seemed large.<br />
<br />
"He had this really interesting breathing and by the time he was two months old I noticed...he had this nice sized head, I called it a Cannon head. We didn't think anything of it, he had a normal Cannon head. But I wanted to take him to the doctor to get the breathing and the sinus thing checked out. We thought it would be a routine process," he said.</p>

<p>The doctors discovered fluid building up in Zen's head and a malignant tumour that required brain surgery. He subsequently had the surgery and a shunt to drain the fluid from his head."We were faithful and hopeful for that time. We carried on, he was still just playing with his brothers and sisters, I embraced every moment. Zen's mom, Alyssa, was just the strongest woman I've ever seen. Never had an argument, never was angry. Was emotional when she needed to be but always the best mom, and continues to be the best mom," Cannon said.<br />
<br />
Zen is Cannon's seventh child. He was born earlier this year.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
According to Cannon, the baby's health took a turn for the worse around Thanksgiving as the "tumour began to grow a lot faster."<br />
<br />
The comedian said they spent "quality time" with Zen over the weekend in California, where he brought him to the ocean with Scott on Sunday before having to fly back to New York for his show.</p>

<p>The comedian got emotional on the show and revealed that this weekend was the last time he held his son."I didn't know how I was gonna handle today but I just really wanted to grieve with my family, people who love you. I didn't want to make it about any pageantry so I kind of went back and forth of what I should do but I was always taught, you go through it you grow through it, you keep pushing," Cannon told his audience.</p>
