Turner had been struggling with problems with his kidneys for years, which may have led to his death at the age of 83. The singer revealed in March that his deteriorating kidney health was linked to hypertension, which he was diagnosed with in 1978.
He admitted to being negligent in managing his heart disease which eventually caused his kidneys to suffer as a result of his actions.
“Show your kidneys love! They deserve it. My kidneys are victims of me not realizing that my high blood pressure should be treated with conventional medicine,” Turner opened up about his health issues in conjunction with World Kidney Day.
She added, “I have put myself in great danger by refusing to face the reality that I need daily, lifelong therapy with medication. For too long, I have believed that my body is an untouchable and indestructible fortress.”
