Bettye passed away due to complications of Cushing’s disease. Once she was finally diagnosed, a decision was made against surgery and Bettye was put on the cortisol-lowering medication Korlym. Though she had initially gained weight from Cushing’s disease, as many patients do, she rapidly lost weight and was admitted into hospice care soon after.
