Who is Deborah Finck? Tributes pour in as 'Nanny 911' star dies at 57

A large number of people on Wednesday paid tribute to Deborah Finck who died at the age of 57 on January 14.

Known for her appearances on the reality TV show "Nanny 911", Finck died after losing a five-year-battle with a rare form of cancer Leiomyosarcoma.

She was a mother from Brookfield, Connecticut, known for having three sets of twins.

She was also known for her TikTok appearances where she documented her health journey.

Her health challenges began with a persistent cough in 2019, leading to a misdiagnosis of bronchitis before discovering a mass in her pulmonary artery through a CT scan following an accident. She was diagnosed with Leiomyosarcoma, a cancer affecting very few people worldwide, which presented significant treatment challenges. Despite undergoing extensive treatments like open-heart surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, her cancer returned multiple times, eventually leading to her transition into hospice care in early 2025.

Deborah's story was marked by her resilience and love for her family, and she used her platform to inspire others facing similar battles.
