After accidentally getting her neck wrapped in a cord from an exercise machine at home and being in life support at the Phoenix hospital,  boxing champ Mike Tyson’s 4-year-old daughter, Exodus, died on Tuesday at 11:45 a.m. at St. Joseph Hospital and Medical Center.

The incident happened at home while Exodus’s mother was cleaning in another part of the house. The little girl was discovered by her 7year old brother when he was told to check up on his sister at the playroom.

Tyson was reported as saying: “We are grateful for the tremendous outpouring of love and prayers from all over the world. There are no words to describe the tragic loss of our beloved Exodus. We ask you now to please respect our need at this very difficult time for privacy to grieve and try to help each other heal.”

Just earlier this year, when everyone was celebrating the New Year, John Travolta’s son, Jett, 16years old  was also found dead when he fell and knocked his head in the bathtub. Jett, who is the only son of John Travolta, 54, and Kelly Preston, 46, had a history of seizures and had an attack while on the family’s vacation in the Bahamas for the New Year.

Another incident also took the life of actress and wife to Irish actor Liam Neeson, Natasha Richardson, 45, when she died from ‘Blunt Impact’ to her head from a skiing incident in March this year. The daughter to Oscar-winning mother, Vanessa Redgrave, was taking private lessons with her skiing instructor in Mont Tremblant in Montréal when it happened.  She was reported as being fine moments after the incident and initially declined to be hospitalised. But then a hour later, she suffered headache and an ambulance took her to a nearby hospital, Centre Hospitalier Laurentien, and later in the day she was taken to Sacre Coeur Hospital in Montreal, where was treated in the intensive care unit.

Our condolence to the family involved.
