How Old Is Kaleb From Shriners Hospital Today?

Kaleb from Shriners Hospital is 15 years old today. Kaleb was just 6 when he appeared in an ad in 2014.

Kaleb was born with the incurable osteogenesis imperfecta, most commonly known as brittle bone disease. People born with the disease have very weak and fragile bones which tend to break even with minor injuries.

Due to this illness, Kaleb has been a patient from the time of his birth. He got his treatment from Shriners Hospital, Canada and is one of the goodwill ambassador for the hospital.

In the late February of 2021, the rumors came flying across saying Kaleb had passed away. It all started when a Facebook user posted a picture of Kaleb with the caption RIP on February 27.

He also shared a detail of Kaleb's treatment which were true but the rumors of his death were false one. Shriners Hospital cleared all the talks after it sent an email to USATODAY saying Kaleb was fine and rumors were about the same named child from another hospital.
