Lee Broadway, 41, died just before her 42nd birthday on April 3 at Novant Presbyterian Medical Center, leaving behind four children and a husband.
Eric Broadway said his wife had a history of migraines, but he said this one was different and that she was in tremendous pain.
He rushed her to the hospital and said doctors thought they had successfully operated on her, according to People.com, but she died two days later.
"We're still in shock," Broadway told People.
“Especially for the kids. They’re all grieving in their own ways.”
The family has a GoFundMe page to help raise money for the costs associated with Lee Broadway's medical treatment and care.
