Hallie Kyed was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia in April 2023, nine months ago, at the age of two. Sadly, Hallie lost her life on January 21 at the age of 2, as her father, Doug Kyed, an NFL reporter for the Boston Herald, revealed on Instagram.
Kyed claims that after his daughter experienced a relapse after receiving a bone marrow transplant, things took a turn for the worst. Her chemo had run its course.
Doug writes, “On Sunday morning, Hallie passed away peacefully in her sleep while Jen and I held her hands in bed.” “Without Hallie, we’re sad and totally lost. Never again will our lives be the same.
Doug went on to say that his young daughter “was a special kid.” Furthermore, “she made a positive impact on so many people she met,” even at the age of two.
Olivia was blessed to have the greatest baby sister, and we were fortunate to be her parents.
The family “spent special time at the hospital last week, but we held out hope for remission because of how brave, strong, and resilient Hallie had been through her entire nine-month battle with acute myeloid leukemia and all of its complications,” the reporter said, adding that they “knew the prognosis was poor when she relapsed after her bone marrow transplant.”
However, despite Hallie’s bravery and fortitude in the face of such adversity, “her aggressive form of leukemia had grown out of control by the time she started a trial treatment, and chemotherapy after transplant was ineffective.”
Doug gave Boston Children’s Hospital’s physicians high marks for their efforts because “they did everything they could to help Hallie, and she beat AML every day for over nine months straight.” After her successful transplant in October, or even when she was first diagnosed in April, nothing could have possibly prepared us for this moment.
Hallie would shout “DADDDDYYY” at him, requesting that he “take her on a walk around the hospital floor.” The bereaved father revealed that Hallie would also give him “sweet little pats on the back when I took her out of her crib.”
Hal, my koala baby, my tiny Hallie Bear, my Sour Patch Kid… was incredibly gorgeous, hilarious by nature (and knew it), and destined to be a dancing class star. The medical personnel, doctors, and nurses enjoyed guessing which princess attire she would be sporting that day (or at that certain hour).
Doug also hopes that those who are grieving for his daughter will learn one thing from her: “to know exactly what you want and to be persistent in asking for it, whether it’s going on a walk, riding in the car, or wearing one particular Disney dress (usually Cruella).” Despite the fact that “the world is a worse place without Hallie in it,” he hopes.
I will miss giving her a head kiss, petting her hair, and telling her how much I adore her. Hallie indefinitely.
On January 26, Hallie will be laid to rest. The Kyed family is in our thoughts and prayers during this especially trying time.
Girl Sings So Much Like Elvis, You Can’t Tell the Difference W7ith Your Eyes Closed
This young lady must be grinning down at the rock and roll king. 11-year-old Oslo native Angelica Jordan has captured the attention of viewers all around the world with her amazing talent, which is on display in this viral video.
Elvis Presley’s career peaked in the 1950s, and his influence lives on through a plethora of impersonators, particularly in Las Vegas. But until Angelica, no one has really managed to grasp his soul.
The enthusiasm in the audience is evident as Angelica enters the stage at Fredriksten Fortress and reveals she will be performing an Elvis song. She starts off with the difficult song “Now or Never,” which she manages with amazing maturity. Angelica’s performance precisely hits each note while remaining faithful to the original. Her voice sounds so much like Elvis that it’s incredible that someone so young could have such skill.
At the age of eight, Angelica launched her singing career by taking part in a talent show that attracted viewers from the UK to America. She attends the Oslo Waldorf School and the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts to hone her skills, and she stays modest despite her notoriety. She is undoubtedly admired by her contemporaries, who see her as a formidable talent.
Even though Angelica achieved success early in life, her hard work and inherent skill made it well worth it. As she develops further and her voice becomes more mature, we look forward to seeing her play live again.
