Levi Wright's Brain Was Deprived of Oxygen For Too Long 

Despite the heroic efforts to save him, Levi's brain was deprived of oxygen for too long. It’s every parent's worst fear–losing a child. The decision to let him go was agonizing. 

"After several sleepless nights, lots of research, multiple conversations with the world's best neurologists & millions of prayers we are here in the face of our biggest fear," Kallie wrote. "Levi showed us just enough to buy us time for all of this. We prayed those things were him defying odds & proving to us that he wanted to stay here but we see now he wanted to give us time to find peace with letting him go. I told you my baby was thoughtful & considerate, I truly believe he did that for us."

Family friend Mindy Sue Clark confirmed Levi's passing, stating he was "the absolute best little boy." The Wright family is navigating life without their beloved child. They are leaning on their faith and the love they've received nationwide.

"Here soon I'll climb into bed with my baby and hold him as he falls asleep for the last time on this earth," Kallie wrote. "I find comfort in knowing he will be restored to the perfect little boy he was & have the ability to do all the things he loves! I know there are Angels up there waiting to hold him until I can again!"

Kallie conveyed a mother's enduring love and hope: "We love you baby beans and I can't wait till the day you can 'work the ground' with me again!"
