Bailey Cooper, a brave young boy, was diagnosed with Stage 3 Non-Hodgkin Ly mphoma in 2016. Despite rounds of treatments and brief remissions, the ca. ncer returned aggressively, progressing to Stage 4. Doctors gave him only weeks to live.

Bailey’s final wish was to meet his baby sister, Millie, who was born in November. He cherished her, naming her, holding her, and even caring for her like a proud big brother. As his health declined, Bailey selflessly chose gifts for his younger brother, Riley, instead of focusing on himself.

When the ca. ncer spread to his brain, Bailey told his family, “It’s my time to go, to become her guardian angel.” On Christmas Eve, surrounded by loved ones, Bailey peacefully passed away.

Though devastated, his family honors his legacy, remembering his courage and wisdom. Bailey’s last request? “You’re only allowed to cry for 20 minutes. Take care of Riley and Millie.” His story continues to inspire hearts worldwide.
