She had been in the hospital for two months recovering from the surgery.
Prior to that, she had been in and out of the hospital ever since giving birth to her son, Joseph Zion Griffith, in February 2023.
It turns out, she had a rare heart condition called Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection, or SCAD.
Now all of that is in the past and she's reunited with her family.
