“If you’re seeing this message, I’ve passed away peacefully,” she said in her final video. “I had a beautiful life, and I’m so proud of it. Those who know me, know I love my pets, my husband, and makeup, in the reverse order! My husband first, and of course, all my family and friends.”
She was actually a doctor in her third year of her internal medicine residency. Three years ago, she was diagnosed with metastatic sarcoma, and though they successfully treated it at first, it eventually spread. In the final months of her life, she updated her following about her palliative care.
We’ve embedded her final video below.
Our thoughts are with Dr. Kim Nix‘s friends, family, and loved ones. RIP.
