Cooper Dizon Doclosen, aged 7 months, died in his mother's arms on October 10, 2022, at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. After struggling with chronic lung disease of prematurity and pulmonary hypertension for several months, he passed peacefully to the Lord.
Cooper enjoyed holding hands, having his cheek stroked, and his hair brushed. He loved to hear songs and stories from his siblings and parents. Cooper was known for his sweet smiles and "side eye" by nurses and family alike.
