TIKTOK star Anna Grace Phelan has died at the age of 19 following a heartbreaking battle with brain cancer.
With 150,000 followers, the Georgia teenager had recounted her battle with glioblastoma, a fast-growing and terminal brain tumor, becoming a source of inspiration for many through her bravery and unwavering faith.
Her death was confirmed in a post shared Saturday on her TikTok page.
Her family shared the heartbreaking news of her passing in a statement that expressed their sorrow over the loss of Anna Grace Phelan, their beloved daughter.
“So many of you have followed her journey through a difficult battle with cancer and bore witness to her powerful testimony of faith,” it continued.
“Thank you for the countless thousands of prayers for healing and peace.
“May we all rejoice with the assurance that she is in Heaven now, and she has been healed.”
The social media star first revealed her diagnosis last September — just days before she was set to begin her freshman year of college.
Her initial symptoms included numbness on the left side of her face and right leg, loss of balance, vision problems, and slurred speech.
“I started losing my balance,” she told fans in one of her TikToks.
She detailed her initial symptoms, saying, “I began experiencing vision issues in my left eye, and the numbness in my face and leg persisted. I also noticed changes in my speech and felt an overall sense of cloudiness in my head.”
