This is Lewis's Family...

 

Sadly Lewis Chilcott, at the young age of 23, lost his life at 9:27am on 24/07/2021 due to a severe rupture in his artery, blood vessel and windpipe.

 

Lewis was admitted to hospital on the 11th of June due to constant seizure activity. The consultants made the decision to put Lewis on a tracheostomy as he was predicted to be on life support for a very long time. During this procedure, he had a rupture and sadly ended up in cardiac arrest. Lewis was then sent to Brighton Hospital and went into emergency open heart surgery for 11 hours. He made it.

 

Fast forward 2 and a half weeks to yesterday, Lewis had come on leaps and bounds, he was awake, no sedation, no life support, and attempting to talk to his dad. Everything was going well and we were so proud of him for improving.

 

However, not even 24 hours later, Lewis had another rupture of the repairs that were done before. Surgeons rushed Lewis to theatre and tried and tried to save his life. Unfortunately there was nothing more that they could do and Lewis passed away.

 

Lewis was a very loved son, brother, twin, uncle, cousin, friend and many more titles. Hundreds of people know him. He brought smiles and laughter to everyone that knew him.

 

We want to give Lewis the best celebration of life physically possible. Due to circumstances, we have made the decision to create this page so that if anyone can spare any pennies, we can scrape everything together to make Lewis's Day amazing just like he deserves.

 

Rest in Paradise Lewis ❤️
