“#prayfortalia It is with a heavy heart that we share with all of you that Talia has earned her wings at 11:22am. Please lift her beautiful soul, her beautiful light to heaven and please send your love and prayers to her family during this most difficult time. God speed little one, may you be free from pain and suffering, may your soul feel the light and love that you brought to so many of us on this Earth during the short time you were her with us. We will miss you more than you will ever know baby girl.”
After sharing her terminal diagnosis with fans in March, Talia spent her final months inspiring her YouTube audience with her joy and passion for life. Talia spent her final six months in the hospital with her mom constantly by her side and received care packages and well wishes from fans and admirers including Bruno Mars and Kendall and Kylie Jenner. Fans also started the trending hashtag #prayfortalia and set to accomplishing the 72 items on the young beauty guru’s bucket list.
Through updates on her Facebook page, Talia’s family shared that Talia was constantly in good spirits and could not thank fans more for their love and support during Talia’s final months."
Talia was featured on Ellen's show and also signed a contract with Covergirl.
I shed a good few tears over this when I heard, she was a beautiful soul.
Please show her family and friends the support they need and live your life to the fullest knowing that not everyone is as lucky as you. The world is a darker place now, more needs to be done to defeat childhood cancer, I hope people remember the lesson Talia tried to teach the world.
Talia had such a huge heart; I discovered her story through Ellen and started watching her YouTube videos. A true angel who is in Heaven now, without pain.
Omg I was just about to make this. I watched her videos all the time and she was so beautiful and always so happy and positive despite her illness. RIP Talia
It's so sad that she was taken away so young. She radiated beautifully, inside and out. Praying for her family. Cannot imagine what they're going through.
Rest in peace Talia 
that's so sad
