I will attempt translating from Spanish to English (from an article I read in Spanish) what the exact cause of death was for Nilda "Puchi" Perez, the wife of the late Salsa singer Hector Lavoe. Nilda, who previously underwent open-heart surgery, was also ill from Asthma. Apparently, she wanted to leave her apartment and attempted to go down the stairs. It's not known if she was suffering an attack. Unfortunately, she lost her balance and fell down the stairs. Her head hit the pavement below really hard. Her grandson witnessed the accident. Nilda died from the head injuries sustained in the slip-and-fall accident. She was 52 years of age.
Nilda, as stated at the end of "El Cantante", died in an accident in 2002. She died a few weeks after the famous interview.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
