R.I.P.
Evidence of When Kanye's Mom Died

Sources have confirmed to TMZ that Donda West, rapper Kanye West's mother, may have died either on the operating table or shortly after the procedure while in a recovery room.

Here's what we know: Sources tell us several months ago, West was scheduled for cosmetic surgery and she had been booked at Le Palais Chantique in Century City, a posh, hotel-like recovery center. We're told West postponed the surgery and therefore never showed up at Chantique.

There are two high-end recovery centers in L.A.; Chantique and Serenity in Santa Monica. TMZ has confirmed West was not taken to either facility this weekend.

If the fatal mishap was the result of a cosmetic surgery procedure, we're told the likelihood is that the complication arose either on the operating table or in the recovery room. The critical time things typically go wrong is in the first two hours after surgery.

u have the class of an azzz.
hope someone is around to say some choice things about your mother when she dies, or your daughter when she dies. and i hope its not too soon. because that could just send you over the edge, realizing why God chose to show revenge on you.

25. I am so sorry to hear about this. Kanye, please remember all the good times you had with your Mom. She stood with you through the fire. NoONE can take that away from her.
All you haters you have negative comments about having elective surgery need to shut it!
You could die havin root canal. Pray the man. That is what he and his family need right now!
