According to Ca’Shawn’s sister, Ca’rynn “Cee” Sims, the 30-year-old fitness trainer — who has over 215,000 followers on Instagram — visited a hospital in Pasadena, California, on Sept. 11 and 12, but was released from care on both days. Previously she was believed to have been last seen on Sept. 8.
“She went to a hospital on both days with complaints of shortness of breath and was released from hospital care both nights,” Ca’rynn continued. “We’re still looking for her!! Please do the same!”
Law enforcement officials have described Ca’Shawn as a 5-foot-1 Black woman with black shoulder-length hair and brown eyes. She has the phrase “It’s found in the soul” tattooed on her left collarbone and the word “Earth” inked on her left forearm.

In amissing persons alert released on Monday, authorities said that Ca’Shawn was last seen on Sept. 8 on the 2100 block of Broach Avenue in Duarte, a city approximately 10 miles east of Pasadena.
When reached for comment on Thursday, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department tells PEOPLE that additional information regarding the case is not being released at this time.
Ca’rynn previously said in a public plea for the public’s help in tracking down her sister that Ca’Shawn lives in Duarte, but left “no indication to where she may have been headed after last leaving her home.”
“Please be on the look out for finding my sister to ensure that she’s okay and safe. She has abandoned her home, her dog and seemingly her phone which is unlike her,” she wrote on her Instagram on Tuesday. “Our extended family (my grandad, aunts and cousins) cannot reach her alike with my middle sister, mom and dad.”
“I never thought there’d come a day of me posting a missing flyer for my sister,” she added. “We want her covered in prayers, God’s grace and to know that she is whole, well and alive.”
Ca’Shawn’s other sister, Chris’tol Sims, said in an Instagram post over the weekend that her sibling is “a very independent person and enjoys her solitude,” but the family has become concerned after not being able to reach her.
