Kyla Thomson Confirms Bella Brave’s Death
“Our brave girl left her legacy here on earth to dance on streets of gold July 14th 2024 at 4:19 p.m. ET,” her mother, Kyla Thomson, shared on social media Monday.
In the caption of a video of Bella Brave dancing in a purple dress, Kyla wrote, “Bella passed peacefully in our arms. Please keep her name on your lips, her memories alive and her bravery in your hearts. Please share with us every detail of how she touched your life or kept you brave.”
The mourning mother concluded her message to Bella’s fans writing, “God is love, be brave and you are never too old to bring a stuffy.”
Bella Brave, whose real name is Isabella Thomson, became a TikTok sensation after she and her mom started sharing her story online. The young girl always had a bubbly and bright personality, despite battling multiple life-threatening illnesses.
Among the diseases she dealt with were an extremely rare bowel illness called Hirschsprung’s disease and severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). Hirschsprung’s disease impacts the large intestine and often makes it difficult to pass stool.
Bella Fought Multiple Illnesses For A Long Time
Last August, Bella Brave had a bowel transplant to treat the disease. Kyla Thomson shared that Bella recovered “faster than any child with a bowel transplant has.” Things were looking up for the young TikTok star.
However, last week, she developed a viral infection in her lungs. She suffered some complications from the infection and ultimately succumbed to the illness.
Bella was placed in a medically induced coma in Toronto at the SickKids hospital. At the time, Kyla shared that she was “stable with no improvement.” Then, early on Sunday, she shared that Bella was “still with us and she is still fighting,” but she admitted she did not know how things would turn out.
Kyla Thomson asked for people to reach out to her with stories about how Bella Brave impacted their lives. In a statement to People, she said, “Everything is hard without her. Please help me let the world know I need them to share with us how Bella touched their lives, helped them, or how she lives on in their hearts and lives.”

She continued, “Don’t ever stop sharing her love and light. Don’t let her memory ever fade. Continue to be brave, be closer to God, and love each other fiercely, for her. Though she be but little, she is fierce.”
