    Texas Mother of Four Dead After Surgery in Mexico

    By Staff ReportsMay 31, 2024

    A 41-year-old mother of four has died of procedural complications following a trip to Matamoros, Mexico, for cosmetic surgery, early information indicates.

    Early available information confirms Sherry Jo Linney-Gilmore, 41, perished, and suggests that she experienced abdominal pain shortly after surgery. Nurses attributed it to routine discomfort, such as can occur after anesthesia, rather than the severe and life-threatening complication it was.

    Gilmore was transported to a hospital in Brownsville, Texas.

    There, doctors said Gilmore’s intestines had been perforated during liposuction surgery, causing sepsis and her demise, according to an online note attributed to family, first reported and shared by TJ Botched, a social media safety account devoted to cosmetic medical tourism in Mexico.

    A fundraiser invites financial support for funeral arrangements.

    Sherry Jo Linney-Gilmore. “With deep sadness, we reach out for your kind support to honor the life of our beloved family member, Sherry Jo Linney-Gilmore. She has unexpectedly passed away as a result of a medical complication following surgery…. Sherry has left behind her devoted husband Justin and four young children.” Via GoFundMe.com, “Support Sherry’s Family With Her Funeral Costs,” by Angela Clough, May 27, 2024

    Our heartfelt condolences go out to her family and loved ones.
