Real World San Diego’s resident punk rock prom queen Frankie Abernathy died on Saturday at her mother’s home in Shorewood, Wisconsin. She was twenty-five.

Frankie suffered from hereditary cystic fibrosis, according to MTV News. One in 3,900 American children are born with this disease and that not even half survive to the age of thirty-seven. During her time in the San Diego house, Frankie had difficulty breathing and immune-system impairment. She ultimately left the house, before the end of the season, on Halloween 2003.
