Sydney Towle, a social media content creator who shared her life with cancer, has died at the age of 26, according to her family. Towle was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma, an aggressive form of cancer in the bile ducts, in August 2023.
Her Journey
Towle had a strong presence on social media, where she shared her everyday life, including her struggles with cancer. She often posted from the beach and loved the outdoors, enjoying activities such as surfing and running. After her diagnosis, she began sharing her unvarnished reality of the disease and treatment, while maintaining a positive attitude and holding fast to her hobbies and style.
Her family described her as ‘an endless ray of sunshine’ and a friend to many. Towle graduated from Dartmouth College in 2022, where she studied government and environmental studies. She worked as a social media manager at Epic Games and had plans to run the 2026 New York City Marathon to raise money for the Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation.
