Bailey Taylor Brown Also Touched On The ‘Biggest Advice’ She Was Given About Loss
“But I lost my dad in 2022 to pancreatic cancer. He was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer in 2021. And from there we started a year and a half long battle against cancer. With it ending with him, he had a stroke and then he was in hospice for 20 days.”
“And anyone that knows me knows both of my parents are some of the strongest, most amazing, most giving, just the best parents. I’m so grateful for the parents that I was given. That God gave me.”
Looking back on her father’s final days, Brown mused on what it was like losing someone so important to you: “I just adore my dad. And it is such a scary feeling realizing the person that does everything for you, that fixes everything, that makes everything be better for you is dying and processing that. And processing that the person that is your whole world is not gonna be in your world anymore…”
Towards the end, Brown wanted to share a message with fans: “I think life is short, so spend it with people that you love and give yourself grace and give yourself time… I think the biggest advice that everyone has told me is to remember the good moments.
