Rachael Lillis, a voice actor who starred in many “Pokémon” films and series as the characters Misty, Jessie and more, died Aug. 10. She was 46.
Lillis was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2024. Veronica Taylor, Lillis’ “Pokémon” co-star who voiced the lead character Ash Ketchum, posted a statement on X Monday morning that announced Lillis’ death.
Very sad.
Please, get into the habit of seeing your doctor once a year for an annual checkup. No one is too young to get sick.
Unfortunately seeing a doctor is so expensive in the US most people won’t just because they can’t afford treatment.
Land of the fee
Yep that’s me
Mammograms aren’t required yearly until after 45. She may have just started them…
Edit: This is a good time to remind people with breasts that you should be doing self-checks.

Oh, that is frightening and so sad. I’m sorry for your loss. Fuck cancer!
My condolences.
In Denmark, the doctor don’t want to give you an annual checkup if you are young (ie younger than 50 something) or you have a reason, for instance symptoms.
Thanks, updated
Mitch McConnell, Trump and all the other inglorious bastards in their 80s prove that there’s no god.
Jesus, 46…
That’s too young… damn.
Rip

That article gets her age wrong. She was 55. Born July 8, 1969, as confirmed by her sister.
RIP to a real one
Another voice of my childhood vanished.
