It is with heavy hearts that we share the devastating news of the passing of two-year-old Hallie Kyed, daughter of NFL writer Doug Kyed. Hallie fought a brave battle against leukemia for nine months before tragically losing her life in January 2021.
Doug Kyed, who works for the Boston Herald, took to Instagram to share the heartbreaking news. In a heartfelt email, he expressed the immense pain and sorrow of losing his precious daughter. Hallie passed away peacefully in her sleep, with her parents by her side, holding her hands.
Hallie’s journey was filled with immense strength and resilience. Despite facing numerous challenges, she fought through each one with determination. Doug remained optimistic throughout, believing in Hallie’s ability to overcome anything. He referred to her as their “fearless little Hallie Bear,” always finding courage in her unwavering spirit.
The family had hoped for remission after Hallie’s relapse following a bone marrow transplant. They spent special moments together, cherishing the time they had. But deep down, they acknowledged the poor prognosis. Regardless, love and hope prevailed, as they held onto the belief that miracles could happen.
Acute myeloid leukemia, the aggressive form of cancer that Hallie battled, originates in the bone marrow and quickly spreads throughout the body. It can affect various organs, including the lymph nodes, liver, spleen, and central nervous system. Despite the immense challenges, Hallie faced them with incredible bravery.
Throughout their journey, Doug and his wife Jen were a constant presence at Boston Children’s Hospital, spending countless nights by Hallie’s side. They juggled caring for her and their five-year-old daughter Olivia, finding strength and love in their family bond. Doug credits his wife for being his pillar of support through this difficult time.
Jen, while expressing her pain, described the loss of her daughter as leaving a deep void in her heart. The pain is excruciating, and the couple is struggling to make sense of such a devastating tragedy. It’s a question that remains unanswered, as they grapple with the unimaginable loss.
Our hearts go out to Doug, Jen, Olivia, and their entire family during this incredibly difficult time. The loss of Hallie has deeply touched the lives of many, and her memory will forever remain in the hearts of those who loved her.
