Harkey was the subject of a story in the Aug. 28 issue of the Cabot Star-Herald. In the story, doctors at Arkansas Children’s Hospital referred to him as the miracle child for being able to survive an infection that may have been caused by bacterial meningitis.
His grandmother said his death may have been caused by the same kind of infection as before. He was rushed to the hospital Tuesday morning, but doctors were unable to help him. Family members and doctors said his death was very unexpected.
