The young Black Hills mother whose pregnancy and cancer fight drew wide support from friends and strangers around the country has died.
Jacqui Graf, 22, died Sunday at Rapid City Regional Hospital Auxiliary Hospice House with her husband, Paul Graf, by her side.
"She was so amazing," Paul said Monday. "She just touched everybody."
Jacqui Graf was six months pregnant in late January when doctors discovered a large mass in her abdomen. The mass hadn't been present the month prior during a routine ultrasound. She was airlifted to Sioux Falls on Jan. 27 and eventually diagnosed with Burkitt lymphoma, an extremely fast growing form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
