Particulars
Rebecca Luna was a Canadian content creator who built a sizable following on TikTok, where she posted personal videos about living with early‑onset Alzheimer disease. After being diagnosed in April 2025, she used the platform as a diary to document the progression of her condition, aiming to raise public awareness and reduce stigma surrounding the illness.
Her candid storytelling attracted nearly 100,000 followers and positioned her as one of the most visible voices in the online Alzheimer community. Luna also spoke publicly about Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) program, defending the right to choose assisted death for those with degenerative diseases.
In July 2026, at the age of 49, Luna elected to end her life through MAID, sharing her decision with her audience in a final TikTok video. Her death prompted an outpouring of condolences and highlighted the ongoing debate over assisted dying and the experiences of people living with Alzheimer disease.
