Illinois Rep. Sean Casten revealed the cause of death of his daughter Gwen, who died in June 2022 at the age of 17.
Casten's family issued a lengthy statement on his official social media accounts more than three months after his daughter’s death. In the statement, the family shared that the teen’s cause of death was a sudden cardiac arrhythmia.
“In layman’s terms, she was fine, and then her heart stopped,” the statement read in part. “We don’t know what caused the (arrhythmia), and likely never will.”
The family described Gwen as a “healthy 2022 teenager,” explaining, “She ate well, exercised, got regular check-ups, didn’t suffer from any behavioral health issues, and had close relationships with family and friends.”
They noted that Gwen was fully vaccinated and was asymptomatic after "occasional" positive COVID-19 tests amid the surge of the omicron variant.
