He spent five months at Nationwide Children’s Hospital enduring many surgeries and therapy, but Cody eventually lost the battle with TBI on July 11, 2015, at age 9.

Cody D’s Run, Walk & Roll is a non-profit charitable event hosted annually in Circleville with a mission to raise awareness of traumatic brain injuries and provide support to those affected through education and advocacy.
