Aside from colon cancer, she also had Crohn’s disease and contracted COVID-19 last year. All of these were confirmed by her fiancé, Dusty Warren, in a GoFundMe page and a Facebook post spotted by Deadline.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Maus also had Crohn’s disease and unfortunately contracted COVID-19 as well in which a GoFundMe page had been set up for Maus to aid her with mounting medical bills. At the time, the actress was being treated at City of Hope in Los Angeles, and was “making great progress in eliminating the tumors.” She was undergoing a combination of chemotherapy and treatments using a machine called the Molecular Enhancer. The tragic news of Maus’s passing was confirmed on Facebook by her fiancé, Dusty Warren, in which he sadly wrote:
“It is with a shattered-yet grateful-heart that I inform you that Jeanette Maus passed away late last night due to complications of cancer,” Warren continued. “I’m really sad, but I’m super proud of her.
