Joni Lamb’s husband, Doug Weiss, revealed that a month before the broadcaster’s death, she was off air because of two hairline fractures on her spine, according to a report by Square Solution on YouTube. Weiss said at the time that Lamb was battling serious private health issues.
Daystar said in a statement that Lamb had been suffering from a back injury that "compounded" health issues she was already facing. Lamb founded Daystar with her first husband, Marcus Lamb. It became one of the biggest Christian television networks in the world, back in 1993.
Daystar said in a statement, “Prior to her recent back injury, Lamb had been dealing with serious health matters that she chose to face head on and in private. The back injury compounded those challenges and led to a more serious medical situation than anyone had anticipated. Despite the dedicated efforts of her medical team and the prayers of so many around the world, her condition worsened in the last few days.”
“Joni’s love for the Lord and for the people we serve shaped this ministry from the beginning,” said the Daystar Board of Directors. “We grieve her loss, and we are grateful for the legacy of faith she leaves behind.”
