A TEENAGE influencer with Down’s syndrome has tragically died following a battle with cancer.
Paula Cisneros, 16, helped raise awareness about her genetic condition and was loved by her almost three million fans on Instagram and TikTok.
Her family and friends have been left heartbroken with sister Sara, 29, paying tribute.
She reported Paula’s death and said: “From today, our girl with the eternal smile rests, smiles, dances and sings without pain and without medication.
“Paula, you have won over life, because in less than 17 years you have known how to live it, enjoy it and hold on tight, and because you have known how to win over every person who crosses your path.
“We love you with all our hearts, Mum, Sara, Dad, Audrey, Leea and everyone who knows you.
“We see each other in our stars every day.”
On 12 December last year Sara revealed that her younger sibling had been diagnosed with cancer.
Paula’s fans became concerned after Sara, who is also an influencer, shared a video of herself visiting her sister at the hospital in November.
After undergoing various tests it was confirmed that Paula, who was from the Extremadura region in Spain, had a sarcoma.
Paula used her social media to provide an insight into what daily life was like for her to her followers.
She often spoke out about living with Down’s syndrome and openly discussed other’s opinions on the condition – as well as sharing her journey with cancer.
Sara often shared posts on her social media which involved her sister, with the pair appearing to be incredibly close.
