TikTok influencer Hannah Campbell announces death of 10-month-old daughter from rare skin disease

TikTok influencer Hannah Campbell shared the heartwrenching news Tuesday that her baby girl had died after suffering from a rare skin disease.

Little Elliana Campbell passed away on Monday at just 10 months old after battling Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa, a genetic condition which causes blisters on skin and can tragically be lethal, her grieving mother announced.

“Our sweet girl Elliana Rose lost her battle last night. She passed peacefully, wrapped in love. I don’t know what to do with myself today,” Campbell wrote in an emotional post to her 720,000 followers on the social media platform.

“I’m heartbroken, and I’m angry. No child should have to endure what she did. EB [epidermolysis bullosa] stole her from us. Let’s fight for a cure so no other family has to feel this. Thank you for loving her with us.”

The influencer chronicled her sweet daughter’s battle with the skin condition that she was diagnosed with at just two weeks old.

“It was heartbreaking,” Campbell said next to her husband in a local television interview she posted on TikTok in 2024. “It was really sad to hear that she probably won’t live past her first year of life.”

Campbell, who also has an older daughter, used her platform to explain what EB is and the different forms to raise awareness. She had spoken out in numerous posts about how Elliana had required constant care and treatments.

In a heartbreaking post over the weekend, Campbell opened up about how her baby’s body was shutting down.

“She hasn’t opened her eyes, eaten, and can hardly cry. We’re holding her close and loving her through every breath. Please keep her in your heart,” she wrote.

EB is inherited and typically begins when a patient is an infant or young child, according to the Mayo Clinic.

There is no cure for the disease that causes fragile skin and blisters that can even occur inside the body, including the lining of the mouth or stomach, but there are varying degrees of severity.

The type of EB Campbell’s daughter had — called Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa, or JEB — can be severe and can lead to death, especially among infants.
