Not sure what to say?

Just saw 14. So happy you were able to get to New York and fulfill your dream. You are not forgotten. The world is a darker place without you in it. RIP

Gods speed beautiful angel ❤

I was so intensely moved, having just finished watching the movie "Perfect 14", that I was in tears at the end with Elly succumbing to ovarian cancer.
I was so happy watching her journey, and recovery and then for her to get to New York. She was ascending, working to reach her plateau, then to see it all come to an end...I was totally crushed. I didn't see that ending coming. I was so excited for her, following along on her journey. Cancer is a devastating disease, and I'm no stranger to...

I am so moved by this young woman and her story. I know you have heard it all before but this story has inspired me. Why did this beautiful soul have to be “the advocate for ovarian cancer challenges”
Why couldn’t she live a life like most girls her age
I wish I could answer that but I can’t
One thing I do know is that she is THE EPITOME of a fighter.
There are very few people that have/will exist like her. She bared the burden of a hero and through her story we are all...

I have got to know Elly through her years of Trial and Tribulation. It is sad that I just recently learned of her passing. She will be greatly missed by her following through the years. I have lost a mother and sister to Cancer Rest in Peace Elly

God is a God of all Comfort..My condolence

To the family: your heavenly Father want you to have thoughts of peace during your time of bereavement. Talk to him in prayer, he will listen to you. He want you to have the hope that he promise; there will be no more pain, no more death and he will wipe the tears from all faces. One thing God cannot do is lie.

You touched my heart and gave me support, all the way here in NZ in 2014 when i was loosing my sister to ovarian cancer after i reached out to you. I only found out today that you passed. I am completely devastated. On 2nd march 2019 i found out i also have cancer. Leukemia. Because of Elly and my sister i decided to have a radical hysterectomy to prevent getting ovarian cancer. May you dance and rest with the angels.
Love for all her family and close friends. She was the best.

I think of you every day Elly and i cannot believe you are gone. You were our beacon of light. To millions of people you were our hero, fighting for your life with grace, humour and courage. I will never ever forget how inspiring you were. God bless your family, especially your mother, in these tough times. We know you are watching over us always. Sleep well sweet Elly.
