Was crying blood
The rash quickly worsened, and Jaxon’s condition began deteriorating.
”His mouth and tongue started swelling, and he threw up. We called 999, and as we waited for the ambulance, he could barely breathe. We had to turn him on his side”
Sammy recalls, describing what felt like an eternity as they awaited medical help.
By the time they reached the hospital, Jaxon’s condition was critical. 15 doctors stood around the little boy, doing everything in their power.
”They worked on him for hours, but he was crying blood,” Sammy remembers. ”I tried to comfort him by singing his favorite lullabies, but the doctors said they needed to put him in a coma and transfer him to a children’s hospital.”

Sadly, despite the heroic efforts of the medical staff, Jaxon’s heart stopped, and after they briefly revived him, he passed away on Monday morning, February 17.
”I can’t believe it,” Sammy sais through tears. ”He was fine just hours before. There were no signs, no symptoms of meningitis. It just came out of nowhere.
Jaxon’s death was later confirmed to be caused by meningococcal disease, a deadly form of bacterial meningitis that primarily affects young children.
”He was our miracle baby,” Sammy says, struggling to hold back tears. ”We spent seven years trying to have him, going through multiple rounds of IVF. After three miscarriages, he was our last hope.”
