Logan Stevenson, a terminally ill 2-year-old boy from Pennsylvania, who took on the role of his parents' best man at their wedding died on Monday.
According to the Associated Press, Logan was battling leukemia and other complications from the cancer. Christine Swidorsky Stevenson, Logan's mother, took to her Facebook page to confirm her son's death:
"Today, Logan was doing very bad; his breathing was very rapid then slowing down. I called hospice to come and she checked him out and she said he's probably [going to] pass. Sean and I held him all day he was comfortable with his medication then at [8:18 p.m.] my son took his last breath in my arms. Logan passed away; I'm so sad upset and I'm in disbelief he is with angels and he's in no more pain. No more sickness, no more hospitals. We love all of u for all your prayers thank u all for caring god bless u all! And most of all god bless Logan I'll [see you] in my dreams my son."
Logan was dressed in a tan pinstripe suit and orange shirt for the wedding. His mother carried him on her shoulder. Being held by his grandmother, Debbie Stevenson, Logan watched his parents wed.
"The Stevensons abandoned an original wedding date of July 2014 after learning from doctors late last month that their son had two to three weeks to live," according to the Associated Press. "The couple wanted Logan to see them marry and to be part of family photos."
Logan was born Oct. 22, 2010, and diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia after his first birthday. The boy also had Fanconi anemia, a rare disease that often leads to cancer.
"He underwent a stem cell transplant in July 2012. Last March, he had surgery to remove a kidney ravaged by a tumor," the Associated Press reports. "During a trip to the emergency room last month, a test revealed a mass in his remaining kidney, which led to his terminal prognosis."
Logan was home for his final days, where he was comfortable and medicated properly.
