Bailey O’Neill has lost his life after suffering with complications stemmed allegedly from a bullying incident at school, reported NBC Philadelphia on March 4. O’Neill died at A.I. DuPont Hospital for uncontrolled seizures following a school bullying incident weeks earlier.
Two students at the Darby Township School allegedly jumped the 11-year old on Jan. 10.
Bailey’s parents took their son and sought medical treatment to his battered face, a broken nose and a concussion after the bullying altercation.
The 11-year old baseball player began to have seizures the family could not control so they brought their son to the hospital for more medical treatment.
“He was sleeping. He was moody. He wasn’t himself. He was angry a little bit. He really wasn’t eating, ” according to Rob O’Neill to WPVI in January.
The two students – who allegedly caused the beating – were suspended for two days from school.
Meanwhile, the “Building Hope for Bailey” boy was forced into a medically-induced coma for the uncontrollable seizures.
The battered boy’s body took a turn for the worse; his parents faced the decision to turn off all life support one day after his birthday.
Bailey O’Neill – a 12-year old victim of school bullying – died from medical complications.
The Darby Township School administrators are working with local authorities in an ongoing criminal investigation to the tragedy, according to WPVI.
The “Building Hope for Bailey” website continues to pour with heartfelt condolences and donations for the family.
All donations will go to assist with burial and personal expenses while the O’Neill family works through their complicated grief.
