Andrea was first diagnosed with Ependymoma in August of 2017 when she was just two years old. Her symptoms included weakness, impaired balance, and vomiting. Andrea endured two rounds of chemotherapy, radiation, and two surgeries before she went into remission. She stayed in remission for two years before another tumor was discovered during a routine CT scan in June of 2020. During her second battle with Ependymoma Andrea had a second surgery and daily radiation treatments before she went into remission for a second time. Her latest battle started just a few short months ago in August. In the last couple of months our brave Andrea has undergone two surgeries and she is still continuing to fight her battle with Ependymoma.

Andrea Webb is a child that has always inspired us to have hope. Her smile and laughter reminds us that there are still good things in this world. This GoFundMe account has been created in hopes that you would contribute to help support Andrea and her family (LaTasha, Brandon , Sakailyn, and Brandon Jr.) with medical cost not covered by insurance, food, gas , and household expenses. We do not want them to have to worry about how they will financially be able to afford medical care for Andrea during this difficult time. Any excess money that has not been utilized during this process will be donated to childhood cancer research and non profit organizations that have helped the Webb family over the years.

Andrea’s mommy (LaTasha), Daddy (Brandon), and big sister (Sakailyn) are focusing all of their efforts on finding and providing Andrea with the best possible care, and spending as much quality time with her as possible. If you send messages to them, please understand they are very busy and going through a tough time. Please understand that a reply might be delayed and/or difficult entirely. Thank you for your respect and consideration.

Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers,

Ashleigh Calhoun (Andrea’s Auntie)
