Twenty-two-year-old Kaylee Engle crumbled to the floor of a hospital hallway when she got the news.

She had just learned that her body was riddled with melanoma skin cancer that had spread to other parts of her body

The Canadian had seven brain tumors, at least 18 in her liver, and at least 20 in each lung, plus two beside her heart, and tumors in her spine, lymph nodes and adrenal glands.

‘It’s so widespread – it’s everywhere,’ the Toronto-based nanny said.

In July 2023, she detected a single lump adjacent to her right breast, which she brushed off as ‘just a cyst.’

It looked more like an ingrown hair or an under-the-skin pimple.

But when Engle continued to find new lumps forming in different areas, she knew something was amiss.

Doctors discovered after an X-ray that the lumps were miniature tumors all over her body after cancerous skin cells had spread through her bloodstream to other organs.

Looking back, other symptoms she brushed off were clearly linked: unintentional weight gain, nausea, vomiting, and fatigue.
