Update on Tragic Death of Kanye West’s Mom

As we reported originally here, it has been confirmed that the likely cause of death of Donda West is believed to be as a result of complications from cosmetic surgery.
An autopsy has been scheduled to determine if her death was related to complications from cosmetic surgery, coroners said Monday. Fred Corral of the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Department said an autopsy would be held on Tuesday into whether West, 58, died from “possible complications of surgery.”  Meanwhile TMZ.com reports that a plastic surgeon “refused to perform procedures on [West] because of a health condition that could have led to a heart attack”.

The website says that Dr Andre Aboolian, a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, was to perform a “tummy tuck and breast reduction” but insisted she get medical clearance from another doctor first. TMZ reported that Donda West did not visit the recommended doctor and went elsewhere for the cosmetic surgery.

In more uplifting news, Jay-Z dedicated his sold-out Sunday night concert at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York to Donda. Near the end of his nearly two-hour set, the rapper asked for a moment of silence to pay respect to Donda West.
