Snoop's Daughter, Winning Her Fight Against Lupus

Rap legend, Snoop Dogg, says that his daughter is winning her battle against Lupus. Cori was diagnosed with the chronic disease five years ago, after her mother noticed a spot on her face. Soon after, Cori began to lose weight and show signs of hair loss.

Snoop recently spoke to People Magazine about it saying, "She's the toughest little thing I've ever met......She's on the honor roll, playing volleyball and softball, living life. She has all this joy. In the beginning Lupus was winning, but now Cori is."

The rapper also says that his daughter's illness is what saved his marriage. Snoop had filed for divorce from his wife Shante in '04, however, he withdrew his petition after reuniting, due to Cori's diagnosis.
In a recent interview Shante commented, "Without Snoop, I don't know what I'd have done. It's amazing how this all turned out. We were gonna get a divorce. But we wouldn't have gotten through it (the lupus diagnosis) that way." Snoop went on to say, "That's what it boiled down to. Cori's lupus showed us we need to be together forever."

The couple renewed their vows in a 2008 ceremony.
