Cori Broadus, Snoop Dogg’s daughter, suffered a “severe stroke” on Thursday (Jan. 18). The 24-year-old took to her Instagram Story to open up about her health scare.
She snapped two pictures from an undisclosed hospital and shared her emotional reaction to her medical condition. “I had a severe stroke this am,” she typed in the first slide. “I started breaking down crying when they told me.” Cori’s second photo saw her wrapped in a hoodie, wondering what she did to “deserve” a stroke.
“I’m only 24. What did I do in my past to deserve all of this?”
Broadus was diagnosed with lupus at six years old. According to Mayo Clinic, lupus is a disease that arises when the body’s immune system begins to attack its tissues and organs. The disease can also cause inflammation, directly affecting joints, blood cells, lungs, heart, and more. Additionally, Lupus Corner states that “the risk of stroke is 4-times to 8-times higher in lupus patients, due to inflammation influencing the tendency of blood to clot and vasculitis stiffening the blood vessels.”
In September 2023, Cori opened up to People about her lupus diagnosis. She detailed lifestyle changes she made to try and control the condition. “I’ve been good, better than I’ve ever been,” she expressed. “I stopped taking all of my medication like five months ago. I’m just doing everything natural, all types of herbs, sea moss, teas. I started working out, drinking lots of water. So now I think my body’s like, ‘Okay, this is the new program, and she’s getting used to it.'”
“I’ve had medication since I was six years old, depending on these drugs all my life. So I wanted better for myself,” she added. “I wanted to change because it just became a lot. I’m only 24 years old, taking 10 to 12 pills every single day. So I kind of just went cold Turkey.”
