After more than two years of grueling treatments and emotional highs and lows, Deavan Clegg shared the joyful news that her son Taeyang is officially cancer-free.
In a heartfelt Instagram post, she reflected on the 27-month journey that tested every ounce of strength in their family. Taeyang’s resilience throughout the ordeal was nothing short of extraordinary—Deavan described him as “the strongest person I know,” a sentiment echoed by thousands of supportive fans who followed their story. The announcement marked the end of a chapter filled with hospital visits, uncertainty, and unwavering hope.
Deavan expressed deep gratitude to the medical team who cared for Taeyang, calling the doctors and nurses “like family.” Their dedication and compassion were instrumental in guiding the family through the darkest moments of the cancer battle. She also gave a special shoutout to Make-A-Wish, whose involvement brought light and joy during the toughest stretches. The post wasn’t just a celebration—it was a tribute to the community of love and support that surrounded them, from fans to healthcare workers to fellow parents of children fighting similar battles.
Though Jihoon Lee, Taeyang’s father, wasn’t mentioned in the post, the milestone is a powerful moment for both parents. The bell-ringing ceremony, a symbolic gesture marking the end of cancer treatment, was a triumphant moment for Taeyang and a beacon of hope for others still in the fight. Deavan’s words captured the emotional release of finally being able to breathe again, and her pride as a mother of a cancer survivor radiated through every line.
