Mia Love, the first black female GOP congresswoman, is struggling with a worsening case of brain cancer, her daughter Abigale announced Saturday on social media.

"Many of you are aware that Mom has been fighting GBM brain cancer. Sadly her cancer is no longer responding to treatment and the cancer is progressing," she wrote.

"We have a shifted our focus from treatment to enjoying our remaining time with her. I am building an archive of special memories with Mia. Please send your pictures, videos and memories to me at MiaLoveMemories@gmail.com," she added.

Love represented Utah’s 4th Congressional District in the House from 2015 through 2019.

CNN anchor Jake Tapper, who interview Love about her cancer diagnosis back in 2022, commented on the post about her current health situation.

"Abigale and other members of the Love family: we are crushed by this news. We have known and loved your mom for years. Sending all our prayers," Tapper wrote.
