This is her daughter posting again-
I thought I'd like to tell you that Shambles died of complications due to her open heart surgery on Friday, June 23rd at 3:43 pm.
After cancelling surgery to put in a pacemaker last Monday, doctors proceded with the surgery on Wednesday. She was talking and awake when they took out her artificial pacemaker. She began to have breathing troubles as my dad and sister came to the hospital to take her home. She began to black out and kept saying 'I'm not gonna make it, I'm not gonna make it' He was rushed out as they called a code blue and preformed cpr for about 30 minutes. They took her into surgery and opened her back up and found severe swelling of her heart- which wasn't supplying enough oxygen to her brain. We were told in surgery waiting she had three or four days to wake up or she didn't have much of a chance of waking up- but she would have brain damage if she did or didn't. My dad and I got to see her that night. The next day she was still in a coma but her blood pressure and heart rate were fine. The nurse came in and told us her blood pressure was getting lower so we all went into the room. It kept getting lower and lower but we all knew she would pull throught it like she always does. The priest came in and started giving her her last rights which we weren't ready for and scared us. My sister and I were holding both her hands as it kept going down until it finally stopped and the nurse, crying, told us she was gone. Tears came out of her eyes as she died- even though they just said it was her tear ducts releasing we think it was because she heard us. The funeral was yesterday and we had the longest procession anyone has ever seen. We have tons of flowers- even some from Marc Anthony and JLo, since she was one of his biggest fans.
If she hasn't told you already, she would like you to know her real name was Cindy Karnish.
