The tragic death of Sylvester Stallone's son, Sage Stallone, in 2012 remains a heartbreaking chapter for the Stallone family. Reports from the time revealed that Sage’s mother, Sasha Czack, who was Sylvester Stallone's first wife, expressed deep concern over her son undergoing dental surgery just weeks before his untimely passing.
Sasha Czack’s Plea

The surgery involved removing several teeth, a significant procedure that can sometimes pose risks. She had concerns that the physical strain or possible medication used during recovery could have adverse effects.
