However, after she was diagnosed with skin cancer four years ago, she used her platforms to spread awareness and document her final months.

"Thank you to all the people, who in one way or another, gave her support and love during this time, directly or indirectly."
Her final post on Instagram was on April 5, writing: "Busy week, I was going to be treated on Tuesday but was finally admitted to hospital and treated on Friday.
"Since then, bad vomiting with an achy body until yesterday.
"I couldn't move from the bathroom and I felt terrible.
"Today, I feel a little stronger. Since yesterday, I haven't vomited and I've started eating, which I hadn't done since Friday, and I'm starting to improve.
"Let's go little by little."
Her fans shared their heartbreak at her passing, with one commenting: "A huge hug to the whole family, I'm so sorry from the bottom of my heart."

"Fly high, ever since I met you, you inspired me. My heart just skipped a beat. RIP precious, and a huge hug to her mother, family and friends."
A third said said: "Patri, a little piece of you has remained in all of us, those of us who followed you and had you as part of our family.
"A big hug to your family and friends and another to your network 'family' of which we were many."
While another remarked: "No no no. I can't believe it, I just can't. I have no words right now."
