Paramedics were called they quickly rushed to the scene. But it was already too late. Bryan-Andrew was pronounced dead.
“The night before he was running around. He was happy. He was laughing and joking. It just doesn’t make sense,” Jasmine told Daily Mail.
The mother remembers saying “i love you” the final time. The loss is unimaginable. How could something like this happen? A healthy boy passes away with any serious symptoms that they knew of.
It was a few weeks later that the doctors finally understood.
Bryan-Andrew contracted a rare and aggressive for of steptococcus , also known as A strep. This infection causes blood poisoning (sepsis) which makes the individual severely ill.
“There were no symptoms because it was so rare he just had normal symptoms for mumps. He had no rash, nothing that you would normally have,” Jasmine told Daily Mail.
Her only comfort was knowing he didn’t suffer because he had fallen asleep and never woke up again.
