Are we going to loose her earlier than expected?https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dee2s_kzUC9/?xtok=MWZzNjRpamMyY2hyMw%3D%3D>Ashleigh Ball is one of those people that feels like summer. Her creative genius and playful, pixie-like spirit makes everything (and everyone!) feel like magic in her orbit.Since August 2025, Ash has been living with stage IV, triple-negative breast cancer. We recently sat down with Ashleigh at her childhood beach to learn about her health journey, and how music and movement have supported her healing.

>>43608138NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>stage 4 cancer Thats usually terminal isn’t it? Jesus fuck.
Wasn't she a direct supporter of some of the worst parts of the S9 ending?
>>4360818112-15% survival rate at that stage. If they had caught it sooner it'd be way higher.
>>43608181Approximately 33% 5-year survival rate, apparently. It’s so fucking over.>>43608221She’s not a writer, and she did a video just a year ago at a con, holding a Cozy Glow plushie, and saying in Dashie’s voice that she’d escaped her stone prison. So she’s definitely one of the good ones.
>>43608254Cozyfag you're honestly based for having this ball knowledge. Any other instances of stuff like this with the other VA's?
f
>only 43Fuck me she's young
The anni curse strikes again. Please save Ashleigh Celestia, I'm begging you.
>>43608138Fuck man. Is it too late to ask for an anni miracle?
>>43608138>that one Anon was seriousNo...
>>43608221Shut the actual fuck up. This isn't the time to be some underageb& edgelord.
>>43608300Why would anyone joke about a voice actor here getting cancer?
I had no idea and now I'm incredibly sad. Jesus man, it can't really get much worse than that. We have to figure out a way to help or something
>>43608138
>>43608138What the fuck
>>43608240>>43608254>12-15%>33%Bad odds but not impossible to beatI will pray for her
>>43608221Wishing death on a voice actress because she supports a couple of dumb writing decisions.
>>43608305I'm positive I've seen jokes about that on here before.
>>43608305anons here joke about all sorts of atrocious shit. I suppose vas are sacred though.
>>43608323anon... survival rate in this case means living a couple more years
>>43608332It's not that they're sacred. She's a nice lady just trying to live life and she actually has cancer. What's wrong with sympathizing with her?
>>43608339ohthat is immensenly sad to hear then. I'd assume it meant odds of it going into remission or somthingthat's awful
>>43608138s-she'll be in equestria with us if she doesn't make it... right?
>>43608342Nothing! I just didn't believe it at first either.
>>43608138Fuck...
>>43608353who the hell is she gonna replace anyway? She voices TWO elements of harmony
>>43608138:(
>>43608221Why doesn’t God give ppl like you cancer?
>>43608362can't give cancer to caner
>>43608138FUCKFUUUUUUUUCK
>>43608323It's stage 4. That means it has spread beyond the initial location to distant parts. Impossible to eliminate at this point. In other words it can't be beaten.It's pure luck at this point when it finds it's way and damages a vital organ. If it's not already doing it. And not just at one place, but many at the same time.So at this point survival rate of X years just means that death is certain it just takes somewhere between 0 to the rest of your life with as other Anons wrote 33% chance of making it 5 years and 12-15% making it "until old age".
>>43608138>stage IVFuck. Hoping for a miracle but that's not good.
>>43608138Should have been Tara
>>43608254Not talking about EotE>>43608303>>43608326>>43608362>wishing deathpure projection, when the fuck did I wish death on anyone?I just don't give a shit dude. She's obviously not going to voice anypony in any important way regardless of how this goes and as anons have correctly pointed out, she makes either no contribution whatsoever or no positive contribution to pony in any way beyond that.
Should we make a /co/ thread? She has voiced a few shows there too;
Sad but hasn't this been known for months?
>>43608394Do you have one of those creepy strains of tism where you have little regard for human life? Fuck off, faggot.
GOD DAMMIT
>>43608270>Cozyfag you're honestly based for having this ball knowledge.Thank you! Unfortunately I don’t know where to find the footage at the moment, but it was posted on here at the time.>Any other instances of stuff like this with the other VA's?Cozy Glow’s VA did a table read for a fan script set after Cozy’s stoning where Twilight let her free temporarily to see if she can learn a friendship lesson. https://youtu.be/8c_VRZzIraI
>>43608401God no. /co/ trannies are the most detestable people on this site now. No one likes them or wants to be associated with them. Furthermore they will spam the thread about how shes a “horse show” voice actor.
>>43608389It will be poetic if Tara remains the last one standing.
>>43608401this would just be a thinly-veiled /mlp/ thread that might get people B& for GR15her roles in FiM are her biggest ones
>>43608394Have some respect, dipshit.
>>43608138This isn't fair. It's too soon.
>some retard added this to her wikipedia page and cited a reddit thread as the source
>>43608394What the actual fuck are you saying, nigger? "Oh she won't voice pony anymore so who cares?" Actual fucking subhuman. If there were a way to cure her cancer instantly by sacrificing your life I'd do it in half a heartbeat. Fuck you.
newfag spackers replying to the most obvious blatant bait
>>43608430just like William Shatner and the crew of the original Enterprise
>>43608412>>43608436>>43608439>performatively wailing that people don't care about a complete stranger dyingYou need to get off the internet and stop reading gossip mags for like a month.
>>43608409>Sad but hasn't this been known for months?Well, it's certainly sad to hear about it. I'm not good with words, or even know how to show respect, but here's hoping she survives, and thrives.
>>43608452Anons who act like we shouldnt care about her, or that are okay with her death, should indeed kill themselves. Full stop unironic, I want them dead. They're souless golems. However you're entirely correct and taking the bait is the entire point of their posts.
>>43608138Well this sure does suck
>>43608401It'd be immediately spammed by a barneyfag impersonator.
>>43608305I remember being in a spic dbz thread when they announced Akira Toriyama's death. Everyone was laughing until it turned out to be true.
I don't really understand how this happened, womans can go to a mammologist when they find some bumps caused by pain under the armpits or under breasts... That's usually how it happens... My mom's chest has been hurting all her life but she's already 50+ years old. I don't understand how this is happening. I hate this damn random. I really hope Ashleigh can handle it. Don't cry guys, everything will be fine..../)
MOOOODSSS STICKY THIS THREAD.
>>43608138Damn you Schmooze, why can't anyone stop you?
>>43608531we already have sticky that's full of discussion about the situationbesides, it would be more appropriate to have one when her time comes
Reminder if you think there's something different about your body, no matter how small, see a doctor.Check your balls.
>>43608523Because it is not easy to notice. And not all countries do mandatory yearly mammography free of charge.
>>43608384The worst part that this cancer is the worst variant to get since the cancer is not responding to the typical hormone meds.
>>43608221I got banned for less
>>43608409She probably kept it a secret, but the fact that the new is coming out now means the outlook isn't good and she doesn't have much time left.
>>43608523Not all breast cancers present as lumps, also in this case she has a very aggressive cancer, so it could have showed up in a short window.
>>43608540ThisFound a fat containing ingual hernia this way, which wasn't ball cancer but I'm still glad I caught it
>>43608567Grim.
>>43608540The problem isn't people not getting checked up, it's that waiting times are so long in Canada that by the time they get seen it's already too lateIn the UK it's even worse especially with the wave of Boriswavers with sham qualifications who can barely speak English working for the NHS
>>43608587Same for me. Had that scare earlier this year.Get yourselves checked anons.
>>43608543I'm not saying this isn't bad, but there are way way worse cancer types than this.Some only takes a few months to become fatal with zero early signs. The patients don't even have enough time for treatment.At least she still has maybe a few years before it gets worse.
>>43608591I'm not Canadian, so unless you are and have firsthand experience to prove me wrong, go right ahead, but from what I'm seeing, the wait times are not nearly as much an issue with serious, quickly progressive disorders like cancer. I'm seeing accounts of people or loved ones starting treatment anytime from within a few days to perhaps a few months after diagnosis, all largely dependent on the cancer's severity.
>>43608635Sorry for not clarifying, I meant worst Breast cancer variant. Yeah there are worse ones, but in this case, the prognosis to not good.
>>43608659NTA, but the problem with Canada is the initial wait time. Once they know you have cancer, treatment is generally speedy. But cancers can grow very quickly, so if you think you have it and try to schedule an appointment, it can be months before you're seen, which can be enough time for a cancer to take over.
>>43608401I'm surprised they don't have a thread already up right now
>>43608766That makes more sense
>>43608523Even when it's lumps and obvious to an outsider, some people deal with it by going into denial and delaying seeking healthcare because they don't want it confirmed, and end up worse than they should have.
>>43608488>Complete strangerWell, yeah, she's a stranger to us. The characters she voices aren't, though. Voices are important, and she's given us two very important voices to love and remember.
I follow almost exclusively pony people on Xitter and this news hasn’t really been picked up at all yet it looks like?
>>43608835I mean it was posted just recently, wait til equestria daily or whatever post about it.
Hope she gets to spend as much time with the people she loves as possible over the next few years, this can't be easy for her to deal with at all. awful news
Take a moment from the awful news to have a laugh, frens
>>43608138Cancer sneak attack killed my mother and my closest professor back in college. I think cancer is going to kill everyone female that I know or care about and then probably me.
God damn the cancer treatments aged her by 20 years https://m.youtube.com/shorts/GVvl6rBoo84?ra=m
>>43608567It's breast cancer awareness month, so that could be involved.
F
Man, that fucking sucks. I hope her family will be okay.
>>43608923Yeah, this random autist showing up in my feed was how I found out about it
>>43609026She's got a kid who is 5 (?). Quite sad, she'll have to watch mlp to hear her mom.
>>43608923I always knew barbiefuckers were subhuman
>>43608923
>>43609041Christ man. That's awful.
>>43608138Just when we least expect it, reality hits hard. I hope, wish, and pray that she will be okay and that a miracle will happen so she can overcome this illness
>50 days after losing DollyAJ bros I'm so sorry...
