During a long-awaited trip, a foreign tourist died suddenly while unwrapping the gifts given to her on her birthday. The cause of death is the rupture of the spleen.
According to the Manchester Evening News, the tragic incident happened to a 36-year-old woman in the UK, in the county of Devonshire, where she went with her loved ones to celebrate her 36th birthday. The trip was planned – the woman considered the county in South West England “the best place in the world” and had been planning the family trip for weeks.
The tragedy happened on the second day of rest when the woman was unwrapping gifts. Unexpectedly, the tourist’s condition worsened. She went into the bathroom and fell on the floor. This birthday turned out to be fatal for her. According to the publication, the British woman had several seizures, and then she died immediately.
Even later, doctors learned the true cause of the traveler’s sudden death. The girl died due to a ruptured spleen and internal bleeding. It was clarified that she had been ill in the years leading up to her death, but her family had no idea how serious the girl’s condition was. In 2016, a British woman started vomiting blood and was sent to the hospital for a check-up.
Doctors discovered that the woman needed a liver transplant and put her on a waiting list. However, the family did not know that she did not have long to live without an organ transplant operation, and the girl’s condition was deadly.
Despite all her health problems, the tourist wanted to “enjoy life to the fullest”, so she set off on a long-awaited trip. The deceased is survived by an 18-year-old daughter. Now the British woman’s relatives have announced the collection of money to transport the woman’s body home to Manchester.
