Deandra
This sweet girl is Deandra. Her mother reached out to our foundation because they needed our help to give Deandra a tomb stone to sit on her grave site. Deandra fought Osteosarcoma for 13 months, she underwent multiple surgeries, one that would end in a partial amputation, endured too many pokes to count, chemo and radiation, was named cancer free in December of 2017, only to find out she had relapsed months later in her ankle, lungs and spine. Sweet Deandra passed away on April 21, 2018. It has been 5 months since her passing and because of medical bills and her mother not being able to work during her treatment, this family does not have the money to pay for their beautiful little girl’s tomb stone. For 5 months this family has had to visit the place their daughter was laid to rest without being able to see her name or have a special symbol to remember her by. Because of you we were able to help this family afford a tombstone to recognize their beautiful daughter’s life and legacy. Deandra you will forever be with us.
