DeSantis reveals agony of wife Casey’s cancer battle and sudden death of sister at age 30

Sadly, there was no such happy ending for DeSantis’ younger sister Christina, who was hospitalized in London with a blood clot in 2015 and developed a pulmonary embolism that killed her at just 30 years old.

He’s never spoken publicly about it, and teared up as he recalled:

“It was just a shattering experience. I remember my mom calling me, my wife and I were on our way back from church on a Sunday morning, and she said that Christina was in the hospital and she had a blood clot but was stable.”

“She was in the hospital for a couple of days and then had the embolism and died and I just didn’t think that was even possible at that point because I thought that she was stable. You have your sibling, their future was robbed and it’s something I wish I could get back. I know she probably would have moved back to Florida.”
