The results of the autopsy performed on the 47-year-old revealed she suffered from lobar pneumonia at the time of her death. The kind of pneumonia is indicated by inflammation of a lobe of the lungs.

PORTER'S DEATH

On the morning of November 15, Porter, the mother of P. Diddy’s three children was found unresponsive in her home in San Fernando Valley. She reportedly died of “natural causes” after tending to flu-like symptoms. Prior to her death, she was suffering from nasal congestion and would cough out phlegm with blood. She was also experiencing excessive sweating, body aches, and a sore throat. She ran a fever of 102 degrees.

A visit to the doctor resulted in the prescription of Toradol, an anti-inflammatory drug along with saline fluids and vitamins. She reportedly watched TV the night before her death before retiring to bed.

Her lifeless body was discovered at 11:30 am with blood in her nose and white froth on her mouth. There were empty bottles by her bedside along with Pedialyte, sports drinks, and a bowl of tomato soup.

Her body was screened for alcohol and drugs and came out negative. Viruses such as adenovirus and influenza A and B were also ruled out.
