Tragic Passing of Influencer Tabitha Gatwiri: Autopsy Report Reveals Cause

Overview
Kenyan influencer and comedian Tabitha Gatwiri tragically passed away, with an autopsy revealing the cause of death as suffocation due to positional asphyxia.

Here’s a closer look at what this means and the impact of her loss on family, friends, and fans.


Cause of Death: Positional Asphyxia

  • Autopsy Findings
    According to the autopsy conducted at Kenyatta University Funeral Home, Tabitha died from “positional asphyxia with brain edema.” This occurs when a person’s body position restricts their ability to breathe.
  • Understanding Positional Asphyxia
    Positional asphyxia, sometimes called the “jack-knife position,” happens when someone is in a physical position that obstructs their airways. This limits oxygen intake, leading to unconsciousness and, ultimately, death. Prolonged positioning can prevent the body from receiving enough oxygen, which in severe cases leads to brain edema.
