A 20-year-old father of two has reportedly died after a bacterial infection on his lip spread to his brain.

On Sunday, Nov. 24, Lockie Seddon, of Gippsland, Australia, died just days after he contracted a golden staph infection, per news.com.au, the Herald Sun and the Daily Mail Australia.

According to news.com.au, Seddon shares sons Mason, 3, and Jax, 2, with partner Claire, 22 — who is currently pregnant with their baby girl.

A GoFundMe page set up to help Seddon's mother, Tam, and his partner Claire, said, "Everyone who knew Lockie loved him, he leaves behind many broken hearts, also amazing memories."

"Tam lost her son, Claire lost her soul mate suddenly. Lockie was only 20, a young father to 2 beautiful boys, and a baby girl on the way," the description added. "He was a loving and doting father, he loved [Claire] and their children with all his heart. He leaves behind a distraught mother, father and a [devastated] brother."

The page has been set up to help raise funds so that Seddon's family can give him the "send off he deserves."

"Lockie was larger then life, a huge and proud mumas boy, cheeky and quirky," the description added.

Per the Mayo Clinic, "Staph infections are caused by staphylococcus bacteria. These types of germs are commonly found on the skin or in the nose of many healthy people. Most of the time, these bacteria cause no problems or cause relatively minor skin infections."

"Staph infections can turn deadly if the bacteria invade deeper into your body, entering your bloodstream, joints, bones, lungs or heart. A growing number of otherwise healthy people are developing life-threatening staph infections," the post added.

Seddon's aunt, Danielle Sherer — who set up the GoFundMe page — told news.com.au that the young father had developed a "small cold sore-like spot" on his lip in the days before his death, which he thought looked "weird" so he went to get it checked out.

After waking up in extreme pain, he was taken to a local hospital before being placed in an induced coma and airlifted to the Royal Melbourne Hospital. However, the publication said he "never woke up."

“The doctors said there were no signs missed and there was nothing anyone could have done, It was already too late,” Sherer told the publication.

Seddon's aunt added to the Daily Mail Australia, "It just started with a little cut on his lip and the GP said it's like a bite or something."

"He was healthy one day, right? Had a little thing on his lip, and the next day, that was it," Sherer added to the outlet.

Sherer told news.com.au that Seddon's kids were his "entire life."

“He was a very cheeky young man and a really hands-on dad. You could just tell how much his boys loved him," she told the outlet. “They would wrestle and playfight, they just adored him. It breaks my heart that they will never have that again."

“When Claire fell pregnant, we all couldn’t believe that they finally got their little girl. He was over the moon," Sherer added. “We just can’t believe this has happened.”

The GoFundMe page has raised just over $2,900 (just over $4,500 AUD) as of Monday, Dec. 2.
