  1. Spending the last months and years of your life doing good in the world. What an absolutely inspiring human being.

  2. I have the same cancer has her and she’s been inspirational to my wife and me these last two years. It’s very upsetting even though expected.

  3. I’m sorry to hear. As someone actually living with someone deteriorating really fast and caring for them, I hope her family are ok. And I hope they have the support they need.
    I didn’t know her till too late, but from what I know of Deborah James, I’m really sorry to lose her

  4. Absolutely inspirational woman. To do what she did (raise awareness and money for charity) in such terribly difficult circumstances was incredible. I hope she’s at peace now.

  5. Cancer is the worse. I remember listening to Deborah on a triathlon podcast in which she was training to do her first triathlon. She absolutely smashed it and is an inspiration to us all. It would have been easy for her to just “take it easy” but instead she did her best to change the world.

  6. My mum died of bowel cancer at 60 and felt that was too young to go when she did. But 40, that’s horrendous. Her family must be devastated. RIP.

  7. I’m so sad. I checked her IG daily and when I saw the post that she had passed I couldn’t believe that she was gone. She was so full of life even in the face of death. I believe that she is off dancing pain-free now. Thinking of her family and loved ones.
