Brilio.net - The Indonesian entertainment world is once again mourning the death of the talented comedian, Babe Cabita. Komika Babe Cabita died on Tuesday (9/4) at 06.38 WIB at Mayapada Hospital, Lebak Bulus, South Jakarta. The news of Babe Cabita's death shocked the public, including his closest colleagues.

Previously, it was reported that Babe was sick and critical and was rushed to hospital in June 2023. Initially, Babe thought the illness he was suffering from was dengue fever or leukemia or blood cancer . Until he thought about selling things that were his hobby.

"I was thinking, if for some reason it gets worse, at least when I was seriously ill, I had already told my wife to sell all my hobbies. Selling it was a Vespa, you wouldn't have taken care of it," said Babe Cabita, quoted brilio.net from Deddy Corbuzier's Close The Door podcast interview, Tuesday (9/4).

Babe Cabita thinks that selling these items is because they no longer live long. Due to his illness which made him critical, the doctor thought that the illness he was suffering from was leukemia. This suspicion is because the white blood cells spread to the red blood.

"Because he thought, wow, this is me in a minute. So, the doctor suspected that I had leukemia. The doctor suspected leukemia, because the characteristics pointed to leukemia. I didn't understand, when he took the first blood test, there was blood in the peripheral blood. "white blood. If the doctor said the white blood was only in one place. This is why it spread. He took a sample on this hand and found the white blood. So, he thought it looked like leukemia," he explained.

However, after the critical period was over, Babe had to undergo a bone marrow examination. From the results of the examination, apparently it was not leukemia. But it's aplastic anemia which causes all the blood to drop.

"But even then there will be a further examination, bone marrow suction. It turns out the result is not leukemia, the result is aplastic anemia. (Critical) At that time it was not yet known what aplastic anemia was. At first it was dengue fever, after that, if it was dengue fever the platelets were down. "If everything goes down for me, white blood is zero, HB is six, everything goes down," he said.

When experiencing critical times, Babe admitted that her body was shivering badly. When he slept he felt hallucinating and dreamed that he was being visited by the angel of death.

"Wow, every two hours I'm shivering. Severe shivering. So I can't sleep, and then I'm sleeping like a hallucination. So I think, oh, people who are about to die talk strange things. Like that's who comes. People I think it's the angel of death," he said.

However, he felt that the fever of 40 degrees Celsius was making him hallucinate. So you can't differentiate between dreams and the real world.

"It turns out that when I was sick, shivering and sleeping restlessly, my hallucinations were as if someone was coming. Later, it was like a fleeting dream, then another strange dream. Between conscious and unconscious. Fever reached more than 40 degrees," he added.

During a critical period, Babe Cabita was given antibiotics by the doctor many times a day. However, there is no medicine that can treat the pain. Until the third day, the doctor managed to find a suitable antibiotic for Babe which made him no longer have a fever.

"Aplastic anemia is a disease caused by autoimmune disease. So humans normally have an immune system that protects us from disease. My immune system attacks the bone marrow. So the bone marrow cannot produce the three types of blood, hemoglobin, white blood, platelets, so it continues to fall," said the father of two children.

To treat his disease, he was given autoimmune medication by his doctor. Apart from that, he is more careful about eating and returning to active sports. It's not surprising that Babe Cabita has lost weight because she maintains her lifestyle.

"So I'm more careful now, in food, exercise, now I'm active again in sports," he said.
