The main cause of atherosclerosis is the accumulation of fats from eating too much food high in fat and cholesterol. White blood cells may also accumulate in the arteries. When the white blood cells attach to the arteries, a substance called netrin-1 is released, prohibiting the out migration of the white blood cells from the arteries. Other factors that can lead to the obstruction of arteries are high blood sugar level, high blood pressure, and smoking.
By age nine, Fee had mastered several of her father’s recipes. She became pregnant with the oldest of her three sons at 15 years old. Her father, she said would “cuss, cuss, cuss, but gave you everything he got.” Unfortunately, Fee became addicted to drugs and spent time in an Arkansas prison for operating a drug ring outside her home. But after being released from prison, Fee became sober, opened a housekeeping business and moved back to South LA where, upon the urging of others, began to post her recipes on YouTube.
Our prayers are with Fee’s family as as they go through this difficult time.
