Pa. Boy Dies After Being Parents' 'Best Man'
A terminally ill Pennsylvania 2-year-old, whose parents pushed their wedding up by a year to be sure he'd be alive to be part of it, died Monday.
Doctors told Christine Swidorsky and Sean Stevenson that Logan, their son, had only weeks to live. Logan was born with a rare blood disorder called Fanconi's anemia, which keeps cells from repairing damaged DNA and can lead to certain cancers.
"Sean and I held him all day," Swidorsky wrote on her Facebook page Monday night. "He was comfortable with his medication. Then, at 8:18, my son took his last breath in my arms."
