Ahmad Butler described the headache that he was dealing with as "Pain On The Brain" in February of 2015, a headache that was almost immediately checked out, and one day later Ahmad was undergoing Emergency Brain Surgery at St. Christoper's Hospital in Philadelphia. This surgery revealed that Ahmad was suffering from the Pediatric Brain Cancer Ependymoma. Ahmad lived for only 9 months after his diagnosis, passing away at 6 1/2 years old in November of 2015, and his Grandmother Latanya Morrison started the Ahmad Butler Foundation in 2020, a Foundation that she has been running with unyielding focus and passion.
