Mother of two young children, aged 3 and 6, the Arabunguense woman lives at her parents’ home due to her serious health condition. Since she began treatment for the tumor, she has undergone six neurosurgeries, and because of radiotherapy and new surgical techniques on the head, her skin and healing have been affected.

“Since October 2022, my head has not completely closed,” the influencer said in a video posted on social media. A doctor from Santa Catarina agreed to perform the plastic surgery, after other health workers did not want to do it because of the degree of precision of the procedure. “It will work, I really believe in it. If it had not worked, God would not have put Dr. Raulino in my path,” Bianca said.

The makeup artist says she had to go to court to get 120 high-pressure sessions, plus extra expenses for doctors and crews. “I just want to put my head down and take care of my kids. Get back to serving my clients and makeup students. I just want and deserve to be happy after all this,” she added.
