Angela "Big Ang" Raiola died surrounded by her friends and family on Feb. 18 but the sad last photos of the Mob Wives star show her heartbreaking battle with cancer.
Family and friends of the 55-year-old reality star shared photos from her hospital bed before she died at 3:01 AM of stage 4 brain and lung cancer.
The reality star’s final appearance was on The Dr. Oz Show on Feb. 16 where she revealed she was diagnosed with cancer for a second time.
Big Ang, who had multiple surgeries last year, found out months ago that the cancer spread to her brain and right lung.
"It's shocking what happened," she recently told Dr. Oz. "First I thought I was cancer-free. I was gonna have a big celebration … and then a month later I was stage 4."
She also revealed she split from her husband Neil Murphy amid her cancer diagnosis. "I felt like he never stepped up to the plate, so I was done with it.”
