Influencer Anna Grace Phelan Dead At 19

TikTok influencer Anna Grace Phelan has died at the age of 19 following her battle with cancer.

Phelan's death was confirmed in a post shared on the 'Anna's fight' Facebook account, which documented her cancer battle, on Saturday (May 24).

“It is with great sadness to announce that our beautiful daughter, Anna Grace Phelan, went home to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,” the message states. “So many of you have followed her journey through a difficult battle with cancer and bore witness to her powerful testimony of faith. 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."

Phelan's funeral service is scheduled to be held on Thursday (May 29) in Jackson County, Georgia. The influencer publicly announced her brain cancer diagnosis last September, days before she was scheduled to start her first year of college.

Phelan explained her initial symptoms included numbness in the left side of her face and right side of her leg, which led to her undergoing an MRI that confirmed a lesion on her brain.

“I started losing my balance,” she told her followers in the earlier video. “I started having vision problems in my left eye, my numbness in my face and on my leg is still here. My speech started to seem weird. My head’s very foggy.”
