The fiancée of ESPN reporter Edward Aschoff said Wednesday that non-Hodgkin lymphoma contributed to his death on Christmas Eve, his 34th birthday.
Aschoff died on December 24 with a diagnosis of multi-focal pneumonia and a rare disease known as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis . Aschoff and others had expressed surprise about the seriousness of his illness, given his age and apparent good health. Hi all, Katy again- this will be my last post on Edward's social media. I wanted to provide an update about Edward's passing that may help people in processing it and making a little more sense of what happened. pic.twitter.
— Edward Aschoff January 16, 2020 His fiancée, Katy Berteau, revealed Wednesday that -- though they did not know it until his lung biopsy after his passing -- Aschoff had stage 4 non-Hodgkin lymphoma in his lungs."Both pneumonia and non-Hodgkin lymphoma can trigger HLH in the body and that is seemingly what happened with Edward. All of this combined is what led to his very rapid decline those last few days, and ultimately his passing," Berteau said.
