In July 2018, at just 36 years old, Ms Lopes was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer.
The diagnosis came after she was initially told by doctors that a lump in her breast was nothing to be concerned about. However, after months of appointments, she was told the life-changing news.
After years of fighting the cancer, the mum-of-one was given the all clear and told her cancer was gone but just two years later, the insidious disease had returned.
Ms Lopes documented the ups and downs of her journey and despite all the challenges, remained happy.
She has now been hailed a hero for saving thousands of people’s lives with her informative and honest videos.
