Despite being told she only has months to live, Isabel Veloso is expecting a baby with husband Lucas Borbas.
Isabel, who lives in Brazil, was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2021 when she was just 15 years old.
The teen influencer, who has over 3.2 million followers on Instagram, underwent chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant before being given the all clear in November 2023.
Tragically, her cancer returned even more aggressively just three months later.
In January this year, Isabel, now 18, was told that her condition was terminal, and she only has months to live.

Doctors initially told her she would have between four and six months to live but have since shortened their estimate after new tests.
However, despite the tragic circumstances the parents-to-be - whom married in April 2024 - are thrilled to be expecting their miracle baby.

Isabel also quoted Psalm 139:16 from The Bible in the caption, writing: 'Your eyes saw my unformed body.
'All the days ordained for me were written in your book. Before one of them came to be.'
She added: 'Love you.'

Her post has since gone viral with 700,000 likes and 44,500 comments.
While some users were quick to offer their congratulations, others questioned why she wanted to have a baby with not long to live, also asking how the medications will impact the baby's development.
'Just one question, doesn't she take strong medications? I ask because during pregnancy, you can't even take anti-allergy drugs, neo-serum in the nose, if she takes it, doesn't it pass on to the baby?' one user questioned.
'Ego and irresponsibility,' declared another.
Another shared her own experience with terminal cancer, writing her mom died only 75 days after she was diagnosed.
'When the symptoms started, in less than a month she was already taking morphine. After two months he became delirious and by the third month he did not recognize his children. 56 pills a day, more than 10 types of medicine. The doctor had given her six months, we didn't even have three,' she recalled.
'In the last 10 days she fell asleep and barely woke up. Who am I to disbelieve this story? Nobody. But I find it completely strange, even more so having witnessed how devastating end-stage cancer is.'
'Until this moment I believed her story, now I no longer. NO ONE with terminal cancer would do such a thing,' another agreed.
