Tina Turner’s son Ronnie dies of colon cancer
Many details have emerged since the tragic passing of by Tina Turner Boy Ronnie Turner last week.
Ronnie’s Cause of Death
Based on TMZ, Ronnie Turner passed away from “complications of metastatic colon carcinoma.” The newspaper reported that the 62-year-old had been struggling with stage 4 cancer, as reported by the LA County Coroner’s Office.
In addition, the coroner’s report states that Turner struggled with colon cancer for “three weeks” before his death. The report also revealed that Turner battled atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease – the accumulation of fat, cholesterol and other substances in the walls of arteries.
Based on Mayo Clinic, this buildup leads to the presence of plaque, which “can cause arteries to narrow, impeding blood flow.” The plaques can break off and can also lead to blood clots and heart complications.
