Honoring Dreeah: A Celebration of Kindness
Donation protected
Dreeah Van Austin was an energetic sweet kind fun soul who loved her children family and hobbies,Dreeah, a 30-year-old mother from Newark, New Jersey, who lost her life just two weeks after giving birth to her daughter, Sevyn.
On July 21, 2024, Dreeah kissed her partner Saladeen and her newborn daughter Sevyn before heading out for a routine errand with her nephew. Shortly after starting the car, Dreeah experienced a seizure and lost consciousness. Despite immediate efforts by her partner and his mother to revive her while waiting for emergency medical support, Dreeah never regained consciousness. She was transported to a local hospital, where, after two days, her family was informed that she had no brain activity and would not regain function. On July 23, 2024, the heartbreaking decision was made to discontinue care, and Dreeah passed away, joining her mother and father, who also passed in the last year.
Dreeah’s death is believed to have been caused by a blood clot that traveled from her leg to her lungs, causing a pulmonary embolism, which blocked her airway and led to her heart stopping.
Plz keep us in prayer and thanks for your kindness and support
