First, it was Stage Two throat cancer she was diagnosed with in 2017.
After a successful surgery, she was considered cancer-free, but it sadly didn’t last long.

In 2018, she was rushed to the hospital to undergo surgery.
It was to clear a blockage that was preventing her from breathing.
Later, it was revealed that the cancer had come back. This time as Stage 4 lung cancer.

In January of this year, she began chemotherapy treatments.
She stopped treatments shortly after.

She later revealed that she was choosing faith over chemotherapy.
Her husband, Duane "Dog" Chapman was the one to break the news of her passing.
So much love and prayers instantly came pouring came in for the family during this difficult time.
Her death has hit really hard for her daughter, Bonnie.
After Dog announced the news of Beth’s passing, Bonnie took to Twitter.
"I’ll never forget you, mama," she also tweeted.

"You were such a strong woman, and you taught me to always be strong. You were strong for everyone, and you taught me it’s okay to let go."
Our heart seriously goes out to her.
She’s been posting several heartfelt tributes to her mother.
She's also been retweeting a lot of the love and support from fans.
There was this shrine that the family created on Beth's car.
There are also flower petals on the driveway and bouquets from well-wishers.
Days earlier, Bonnie had also posted this heartbreaking image of her holding her mother’s hand.
Bonnie is the youngest daughter to Beth and Dog.
There’s an even sadder update to this whole ordeal.

Shame on those trolls.
