A Texas woman has died after contracting fungal meningitis in an outbreak that has been linked to a cosmetic procedure performed in Mexico.

Lauren Brooke Robinson, 29, died on Wednesday from a fungal meningitis infection after receiving cosmetic surgery in Mexico, the local TV news station .

“The loss of Lauren Brooke Robinson leaves a void in the hearts of those who knew and loved her,” read an obituary for the mother of two children, who lived in Vidor, Texas.

According to her husband, Robinson traveled to Matamoros, in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas, in February to undergo an unspecified procedure.

Robinson visited multiple hospitals before finally being diagnosed with fungal meningitis, which is rare but potentially deadly.

In March, Latavia “Tay” Washington McGee and a group of friends traveled from South Carolina to Matamoros so that she could undergo what is known as a tummy tuck surgery.
