The youngest cast member of the reality series "Alaskan Bush People," Rain Brown, has been very vocal about her struggles with depression and her call for equality and acceptance.

The 14-year-old reality star has been using social media to share her vulnerability with fans in order to be a voice of hope for those in a similar situation. She recently shared an Instagram photo that asked people to treat each other with acceptance and love.

Since sharing her inner thoughts with fans, the majority of the comments on social media have been positive. A lot of the fans praised the young girl's wisdom and light. Others encouraged the young reality star to keep being herself and to continue doing what she loves. Some also offered her prayers since Rain's mother Ami is currently battling cancer.

It was earlier revealed that the Brown matriarch had been diagnosed with lung cancer. The family was forced to move from their Alaskan abode to California where Ami is presently being treated. Unfortunately, recent reports concerning her battle with the illness have been unwelcoming. Nevertheless, Ami has been optimistic about her condition despite having the odds stacked against her.

The matriarch of the Alaskan reality TV show said that the easy road was to "give up and just die" but she vowed to fight for her health and will continue to do so until her dying breath.

Both mother and daughter recently spent some quality time together by concocting their favorite peach tea. They also created essential oils. Rain said on her Instagram post that her mother is now going through her second round of her chemotherapy and the family is hopeful for good results. The young Brown also thanked everyone for showing their support and love in the family's time of distress.
