According to reports, the doctor had celebrated her 28th birthday on January 20. Her departure leaves a profound void in her family and in all those who shared personal and professional moments with her.

"My God, how much pain. We were classmates and childhood friends. May God keep her in His holy glory and grant her eternal rest," commented a close friend of the young woman.

"What great pain, my sister, you left so young and full of life. You were not just my friend; you were the sister that life gifted me. May God have you in His glory, Mimi. Perhaps in another life we will meet again and continue dancing the rumba that you loved so much. Those who are buried do not truly die; only those who are forgotten do, and we will never forget you because you were one of those rare people who brought joy to the lives of others," another person remarked.

The circumstances of the event have not been disclosed.
