Blogger Kate Hudson’s Two-Year-Old Daughter Dies After Cancer Battle

Social media influencer and blogger Kate Hudson is mourning the death of her two-and-a-half-year-old daughter Eliza.

Eliza‘s battle with cancer was documented on Kate‘s social media pages and hundreds of thousands of people followed along with the journey. She was diagnosed with a “very rare and aggressive cancer known as rhabdoid tumor” at 10 months old and she sadly passed away on Father’s Day.

Kate wrote an incredibly moving tribute to her late daughter on Instagram.

My sweet baby girl. I don’t know how we will go on without you. I know we promised you we would we brave, just like you.

But we are broken. Even though we know you are no longer suffering or in pain or frustrated with what life had become.

I thought that because we knew you were dying, that your death would not feel so sudden. But it did. I wasn’t ready to see what I saw.

I woke up this morning, still half asleep,, and reached for your hand. But you were not there. You left last night. In a van that took you away. I wanted to run after you. But I couldn’t. I have to accept this new reality…but I am not ready to let you go. I don’t think I ever will be ready to move on.

I don’t know where your soul went when it left your little body.

I want to believe you are somewhere with my dad and my sister….and your sister…all loved ones you never met.

I want to believe you are all together. Dancing in meadows or swinging on trees or walking alongside a beach somewhere with ocean salt water washing over your toes.

I also want to believe your soul transferred into us, your Mamma and your Dadda. That you left your little body and gently latched onto our souls. That we are now intertwined for life.

I want to believe you are still alive somewhere.

I want to believe I will wake up from this nightmare and you will be there holding our hands. Telling us it was just a bad dream.
