Antwain Fowler, a viral internet star, has passed away at just 6 years old.
The young boy became an online star when his mom shared a video on the internet sitting inside a car and asking her “where we about to eat at?”.
The video was uploaded on YouTube and got 24 million views.
The little boy was diagnosed with autoimmune enteropathy, which is a type of condition that prevents the body from absorbing nutrition.
A post on social media confirmed the news.
The post on Instagram said:
The pain in my heart is like no other, why God. Never in a million years, my heart is out my chest.
A GoFundMe page that was set up earlier this year has attracted nearly $60,000 in donations.
The page was set up to help pay for his hospital bills.
In the post, it was said that Antwain had gone through more than 25 surgeries and was hospitalized because of the condition.
The page added:
The first four years of Antwain’s life was an everlasting fight, and very crucial experience for his family. Through unlimited prayers, faith, and doctors working around the clock Antwain is progressively healing; and truly grateful for all that he’s accomplished thus far. From the moment Antwain was released from the hospital he wanted to know one thing, ‘Where we bout to eat at’, which is what the entire world finds themselves asking quite often.
Recently, Antwain underwent through a procedure that is called as autoimmune enteropathy. The procedure was carried out to help the boy gain some muscle.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of Antwain, may his soul rest in peace.
