Archie Battersbee, 12, died on Saturday. Life support apparatus disconnected.
Archie has been unconscious since April 7. That day, his mother found him unconscious in the room. The woman suspects that her son has been a victim of an Internet challenge.
The battle to support the boy with the apparatus has been going on for a long time. The judges, citing medical examinations, argued that there had been irreversible damage to the brainstem. The judges decided that it was in the boy’s best interest to stop keeping him alive.
