Teddy was first diagnosed in late November 2023, and from that moment on, his life became a fight that few could imagine, yet he faced it with remarkable strength and resilience. He spent countless days in and out of the hospital, undergoing radiation, chemotherapy, and even a bone marrow transplant in hopes of recovery.
Despite the tireless efforts of doctors and his family’s unwavering love, Teddy developed a sudden infection that worsened over just a week. On the evening of May 6, surrounded by love, Teddy passed away peacefully in his mother’s arms.
Though his time here was far too short, Teddy’s life was filled with love, joy, and courage. He touched the hearts of everyone who knew him, from family and friends to the nurses and doctors who cared for him. He will forever be remembered as a little angel who fought bravely until the very end.
His passing has left his family devastated. Teddy’s mother, who had to step away from work to care for him throughout his illness, now faces not only unimaginable grief but also financial hardship. GoFundMe
