RIP ASTRID YOMALY MADRIGAL (December 14, 1990 – December 13, 2025)

Formal pronouncement of death was made on Saturday.

Chronic seizure disorder with bilateral hippocampal sclerosis and granule cell dispersion refers to the underlying structural brain pathology causing the epilepsy: bilateral hippocampal sclerosis involves scarring and neuron loss in both hippocampi, while granule cell dispersion is a disorganization of dentate gyrus neurons seen in roughly half of epilepsy cases.

Cachexia (wasting syndrome) indicates significant weight loss and muscle atrophy.
