Snoop Dogg and Shante Broadus‘ daughter had a health scare that landed her in a medical institution, though she seems to be in stable condition now.
On Wednesday (January 17), 24-year-old Cori Broadus was rushed to the hospital after suffering what she descirbes as “a severe stroke.” The cause behind her current condition remains unknown, though she has been battling lupus — an autoimmune disease for which there is no cure as of now — for most of her life.

“I had a severe stroke this am [two teary-eyed emojis] I started breaking down crying when they told me,” she wrote on her Instagram Stories in the early hours of Thursday (January 18).
In a follow-up slide, she added: “Like I’m only 24 what did I do in my past to deserve all of this.”
Last year, Broadus sat down with PEOPLE to discuss her struggles with lupus, which she was diagnosed with at the age of 6.
“I’ve been good, better than I’ve ever been,” she said. “I stopped taking all of my medication like five months ago. I’m just doing everything natural, all types of herbs, sea moss, teas. I started working out, drinking lots of water. So now I think my body’s like, OK, this is the new program and she’s getting used to it.
“I’ve had medication since I was 6 years old, depending on these drugs all my life. So I wanted better for myself. I wanted to change because it just became a lot. I’m only 24 years old, taking 10 to 12 pills every single day. So I kind of just went cold Turkey.”
In 2010, Snoop and his wife discussed their daughter’s condition during an appearance on The View.

“I didn’t know what to do because people look to me for their savior at times,” he explained. “I’ve done a lot of Make A Wish and I’ve saved a lot of kids and been apart of their lives and now to have this happen to me was like what could I wish for other than to find a cure to help my daughter. No money could fix it, no nothing could fix it.
“It was just a matter of us loving what we have and loving the moment and just being thankful for what we have. Not really focus off what’s not right, but try to get it right by having love in the house and that’s what’s making her get better.”
