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.”
