Ashley Cooke’s health revelation earlier this year had her fans sending prayers and well-wishes.

The 28 year old made the revelation recently on a TikTok video. She mentioned that she is having a career year, and she has indeed found success, but … man, she has really had a rough run of health-related news. That included her dropping in the nugget about a recent diagnosis of her own.

Cooke provided more information on that in an interview with Taste of Country.

“It’s a genetic thing called Brugada syndrome,” she told the site. “A lot of my family members have passed away unexpectedly, very healthy and very young, from it. So it’s very scary.”

The Mayo Clinic says that Brugada syndrome is “a rare but potentially life-threatening heart rhythm condition that is sometimes inherited.”

It adds that people with Brugada syndrome have “an increased risk of irregular heart rhythms beginning in the lower chambers of the heart (ventricles). This disease can cause an abnormal rhythm in the heart’s lower chambers, leading to ventricular fibrillation (v-fib) and sudden cardiac death, often occurring while at rest or asleep.”

Cooke told Taste of Country she underwent multiple EKGs to get to the diagnosis and is working with a cardiologist to try to find out more about her condition.

“The crazy part is, it doesn’t really impact anything about my daily life,” she said. “That’s the scary part about Brugada syndrome. It just feels like a ghost around you. Because there’s no warning signs, no symptoms. It’s just one of those things where all of a sudden one day, this certain thing in your heart can just stop, and you’re just gone.

“It’s terrifying,” she added. “It doesn’t impact anything that I do, or how I function, until one day, it maybe just could.”
