New messages from Neboga«s close ones appeared on her birthday; the girl would have turned 22. But in mid-November, she passed away after a five-year battle with a rare form of cancer—Ewing»s sarcoma. Her loved ones, as the blogger had wished, have continued to run the channel on her behalf since her death.

«Today is my birthday. And the best gift is that you remember me, haven»t forgotten. Blowing out the candles on the cake, I couldn«t have wished for more sincere people by my side, always ready to support. And even though I»m in a better world now, I want you to feel my support too,« the message says.

After the farewell in Moscow the girl«s body was cremated, as she had requested. As it became known, half of the ashes were scattered over the Indian Ocean, and the other part was brought to her small homeland—Novokuznetsk.

The urn was buried at Redakovskoye Cemetery, where relatives allowed Neboga«s subscribers to come.

«The area is still being improved, but you can come now. Just behave normally, not like in the comments sometimes. I love you all, don»t forget me,« write her close ones.

Initially, the girl was planned to be buried in Moscow, where she lived in recent years and developed her blog. It was there that she learned about her cancer—millions of people followed her treatment and humor around the serious illness on social media.
