A Colorado family is facing heartbreak as they prepare to say goodbye to their one-year-old son, Alastor, who will be taken off life support after a sudden illness.
His parents say he became critically ill after developing the flu, croup, and a respiratory virus. What seemed like a routine hospital visit quickly turned tragic when he stopped breathing during an exam and was rushed to another hospital. They believe a lack of oxygen may have caused severe, irreversible brain damage.
Doctors later confirmed he had no brain activity. His parents described him as a happy, loving child and shared the pain of watching his siblings say goodbye.
Amid their grief, the family has raised concerns about his initial treatment and may pursue legal action, questioning whether more could have been done.
Now, surrounded by loved ones, they are preparing for their final moments with their son, supported by the community during this devastating time.
