Natasha's devoted mother and caregiver, Sabina, also paid tribute to her daughter's life, sharing a heartwarming video of their bond at a Megan Thee Stallion concert. Indeed, the content creator harnessed the power of her social media platforms to shine a light on her illness.

In a TikTok post from April of last year, Natasha bravely revealed her 2020 diagnosis of stage 3 synovial sarcoma—a rare and insidious cancer that attacks soft tissues, according to the Cleveland Clinic—after doctors discovered a tumor in her knee. After enduring numerous rounds of chemotherapy, radiation, and tumor extractions, Natasha entered remission the following year. Unfortunately, months later, her CT scans revealed a grim reality: the cancer had returned and spread to her lungs, elevating her condition to stage 4. By the end of 2021, she underwent a multitude of treatments, which she noted had helped "stabilize" and even "shrink" some of her tumors.

Despite this modest progress, tumors continued to emerge in other parts of her lungs. "Synovial sarcoma is so woefully underresearched that the statistics are in constant flux," Natasha explained in the TikTok video. "Officially, I have a 15% chance of surviving five years after being diagnosed with stage 4. But I refuse to accept those odds. I'm putting my faith out into the universe."

And although the grueling treatments took their toll on her body, she remained resolute in her fight against the illness, drawing strength from her loved ones. "It's challenging most days, let's be honest," she continued. "But being surrounded by family and friends, and focusing on what truly matters, keeps me grounded. Even though I'm battling this rare cancer, I still cherish every moment of my life."
