A person with a lot of influence in health and wellness died of breast cancer at the young age of 30.
Juanita Lira Eguiguren was only 22 years old when she was first told she had the terrible disease.
Her family told everyone that she died on Saturday.
Family members read an encouraging message that Eguiguren had written before she died.
“For me, hope is peace,” the post said. Hope can always beat fear, in my opinion.
“We might not be able to change the problems and challenges that life throws at us, but we can change how we react to them and how we live with them.”
To do this, I like to hold on to my little bit of hope.
In Chile, Eguiguren was the daughter of the town’s mayor.
There was a statement from the council that said, “It is with deep regret that we announce the death of Juanita Lira Eguiguren, but with hope in Heaven.”
Before she was supposed to go to Barcelona, Spain, to study design, the Chilean influencer found out she had breast cancer.
She told them at the time, “I had to cancel the trip and make big changes to all my plans.”
“I had to face my illness and put all of my efforts into getting better.”
There were supposed to be no more tumor cells in my body after three months after surgery and radiation therapy.
Lira finished school and got married while she thought she was getting better.
Doctors told her that her breast cancer had come back after another biopsy in 2017 and had spread to her lungs, lymph nodes, and sternum.
Lira made the choice to make big changes in her life and started a business.
