90s star Samuel Monroe Jr., best known for his role in “Menace II Society,” is currently on life support<\/a>, his family told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“As Samuel\u2019s wife, Shawna Stewart, we all been fighting over the past nine months to keep him alive due to meningitis,” Stewart began.<\/p>\n

“Around 18 months ago, Samuel was in Las Vegas<\/a> filming, and unfortunately, that is where he contracted meningitis. He went to several different hospitals, where his condition was repeatedly misdiagnosed and because of this negligence, the meningitis went untreated for eight months,” she continued.<\/p>\n

Stewart said that by the time he was properly diagnosed, the meningitis had spread to his brain and his spine.<\/p>\n
