TikTok personality Rebecca Luna has passed away at 49 due to an early onset Alzheimer’s diagnosis. The British Columbia resident, known for her sizable following of over 47,000 on the platform, chose to undergo Medical Aid in Dying (MAID) as her condition deteriorated rapidly. Her eldest daughter, Maya, shared the news online, stating that Rebecca passed away surrounded by loved ones on July 25th at 1:15 pm, requesting privacy and expressing gratitude for the support.
In a recent online post, Rebecca discussed her challenging decision to end her life, citing her discomfort and suffering from the disease. Despite the difficulties, she emphasized the importance of self-care and self-love, hoping her journey would inspire others to prioritize their well-being.
Diagnosed with Young Onset Alzheimer’s a year prior, Rebecca, a single mother, had been actively fundraising for her family’s future through a GoFundMe campaign, initiated at the suggestion of her dedicated followers. Through social media, she shared her medical journey, advocating for individuals facing similar struggles and shedding light on Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying program.
Rebecca garnered attention when she revealed her desire to meet Lily Allen, a dream that came true when the singer invited her to a concert, a moment Rebecca cherished as one of the happiest in her life.
