The young woman revealed on Instagram that she was hospitalized after suffering a stroke. On Thursday, January 18, she posted a series of photos of herself in her hospital bed and another of her wearing a surgical mask. “I had a massive stroke this morning,” she wrote.
The announcement of the diagnosis deeply shocked the CEO of the beauty brand Choc Factory. “I started crying when they told me. I'm only 24, what have I done in my past to deserve all this? she asked herself.
Cori Broadus has suffered from health problems since she was a child. At the age of six, she was diagnosed with lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease that can cause symptoms such as muscle pain, extreme fatigue and headaches. Lupus increases the risk of stroke. It requires severe drug treatment. However, in September 2023, the young woman told People that she had decided to replace her medication with natural remedies.
“I stopped all my medications about five months ago. I do everything natural, all kinds of herbs, sea moss, teas… Now I think my body says “Okay, this is the new program” and gets used to it. she then explained.
Cori Broadus also highlighted the difficulty of living with a debilitating chronic illness: “Sometimes I feel like I have nothing to live for. I have so many health problems and I feel like people don't really understand me, they think I'm being dramatic.”
She had confided on Instagram in 2021 that she had attempted suicide, but thanked her fans and family who “really gave her meaning” and “helped her understand that life is much more than materialistic things and that we must continue to move forward in the future “amid trials.” His parents, Snoop Dogg and his wife Shante Broadus, also have two sons, Cordell (26) and Corde (29). The Drop It Like It's Hot rapper also has an older son, Julian, 26, from a previous relationship.
