Woman Dies Mid-Flight from Undetected Heart Condition in Her Mother's Arms
A 44-year-old woman died during a flight from the US to London after suffering an undetected heart condition. Rachel Green passed away in her mother's arms, who was travelling with her on the seven-hour journey. The incident unfolded mid-flight when crew members and Green's mother tried to wake her but could not. An investigation later found that she had an undiagnosed condition called myokardtunneling, which caused a partial blockage in her coronary artery. Tests also revealed multiple prescription drugs in her system. However, no details have been released about why these substances were present. The case highlights the risks of undiagnosed medical conditions during long flights. Green's death was confirmed by her mother, who held her as she passed away. The investigation concluded that her heart condition was the primary cause.
