Check out some of the latest trending news: Investigation into the cause of Mama Cax’s death Mama Cax spent a week in the hospital before passing away on Dec. 20, 2019, according to a statement from her family released on Instagram. She was 30 years old. She wrote on Instagram a week before her death that she was in severe abdominal pain and was rushed to the emergency room. She claimed that medical specialists initially thought it was just inflammation. She had “several blood clots” in her knee, thigh, abdomen and close to a filter in her lungs the next morning, so it “got worse.” As part of her cancer treatment when she was a teen — more on that below — doctors had the filter implanted there. She continued, “Unfortunately,” “flying puts me at risk for a pulmonary embolism.” So she had made the decision to remain under house arrest until after Christmas. The person who edited Mama Cax’s Wikipedia entry stating that pulmonary embolism was the cause of death seems perplexed by this. No official reports make this claim. But blood clots can be deadly. In addition, a blood clot that has “traveled from a deep vein to a lung” is known as a pulmonary embolus. Mama Cax died on December 16, 2019 at the Royal London Hospital.
