Donda West's 911 Calls Released
Monday December 17, 2007
 Ray Tamarra/Getty Images Usmagazine.com has obtained the nearly 8-minute audio of an unidentified woman calling 911 for Kanye West's mother, Donda, who died November 10 after plastic surgery. "She's having a heart attack," the caller says. "She's not breathing. She's not moving. I'm trying to do CPR. She just had surgery... She's on medication. She complained she couldn't breathe." As the 911 operator asks questions to assess the situation, the caller continues, "We're trying to do CPR on her." Someone is heard in the background saying "Donda West! Please wake up! Donda West! C'mon! C'mon!" "I don't feel a pulse," the caller says. Someone is heard yelling "Breathe!" as heavy breathing is heard. "Get an ambulance here now!" the caller says. At one point the operator expresses frustration that the situation is too chaotic: "Maim, let me tell you how to do this. You need to listen. You're not listening to what I'm telling you. You're not helping the person at all." The operator then provides instructions for CPR and mouth-to-mouth. "Air is not going in and out," the caller says. "Her chest is not rising." TMZ.com has posted clips of the calls. Dr. Jan Adams – who performed a breast reduction, tummy tuck, and liposuction on West, 58, the day before she died – has blamed her death on a heart attack, pulmonary embolism or accidental overdose of the painkiller Vicodin. "Nothing went wrong," he told the L.A. Times of the procedure. Adams had two medical malpractice judgments against him for about $200,000 each, Usmagazine.com reported last month. Results of the autopsy have not been finalized.

Apparently it isn't true that inappropriate comments will be deleted from this page because there are a lot of them on this page. Its funny how so many ppl have such negative things to say about Kanye's mothers death, when half of you can't spell. Proofread your comments before you post them. Death is a sad situation for any family. Because Kanye is famous, that doesn't make his mother's death any less painful than anyone elses. You only get one mother and you wouldn't want anyone to disrespect her so why disrespect Kanye or his mom after her death. Whose to say that she didn't do the research. Its not important how or why she died because death comes to everyone. What is important is that her son is still mourning his loss and we as a Country should respect that. By the way, isn't it white trash? If you want to diss someone of the african-american race, be a little more creative.

I have heard this news earlier at Richromances.com where many vegetarian members are busy with talking about this story. Many related blogs can be found at that site.

1:59 PM Anonymous Says: Everything you say during a 911 call is public. A 911 call is not a private phone conversation, you are talking to someone working for a public agency. So as I understand it, contents of 911 tapes cannot be withheld from the public. It is a public record. ________________ Post new comment |
