Daisy Lewellyn’s passes away

Lewellyn was battling a rare form of the disease, which was diagnosed after her makeup artists noticed an unusual coloring in her eyes. She was later diagnosed as having a cancerous tumor in her bile duct. She received treatment, including having the tumor removed as well as getting chemotherapy and radiation treatments.

“I have cancer – cancer doesn’t have me. Every day comes with its challenges, but that doesn’t stop me from celebrating what I have in my life,” she said in March 2015.

“I wanted to turn this tragedy into triumph by sharing my story in hopes that even one person could feel inspired.”
