Elly Mayday Biography – Elly Mayday Wiki
Elly Mayday real name Ashley Shandrel Luther, was a Canadian model and advocate for women’s health.
Elly Mayday moved to Vancouver after landing her dream job as a flight attendant and a model. She was just beginning her modelling career when the lower back pain and significant pain from unusual bloating she had been experiencing for three years worsened. For those three years, her symptoms were dismissed as nothing serious by doctors.
In 2013, she was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. During the years between her diagnosis and her death, she quit her job as a flight attendant and began booking photo shoots, posing bald and scarred, sharing her illness with the world.
She was the face of ADDITION ELLE’s BRAve campaign, which is in partnership with Ovarian Cancer Canada. She also became the subject for a documentary that focused on her modelling career. The documentary, “A Perfect 14,” will have its first Canadian screening during the Vancouver International Women in Film Festival on Thursday.
