TikTok star Jehane Thomas' heart-breaking photo taken days before sudden death after suffering with optic neuritis

TikTok star and mum-of-two Jehane Thomas shared a heart-breaking photo with her sons just two days before her tragic and unexpected death. The 30-year-old had previously spoken about suffering from migraines and bouts of illness after being diagnosed with optic neuritis.

The Yorkshire mum sadly died on Friday, March 17. Just days before her passing she shared that she had a "really challenging week", both mentally and physically. She told her followers on Instagram that she felt like her sons, Isaac and Elijah, had 'grown up so much' while she was away in hospital, YorkshireLive reports.

According to the NHS, optic neuritis is an inflammation of the optic nerve. The cause is unknown but it typically affects women more than men and can cause a decrease in vision and pain in or around the eye.
