Mama June Shannon’s eldest daughter, Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell, has reportedly been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.
The 28-year-old received her adrenal carcinoma diagnosis in January, TMZ reported Thursday.
After Cardwell underwent a series of tests for stomachaches, cancer was discovered in her liver, kidney, and lung.
A source told the outlet that Cardwell’s family members are “very hopeful” she will get better
Cardwell has reportedly experienced her first round of chemotherapy, with further treatment decisions to be made depending on her reaction.
Shannon’s rep has yet to respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Cardwell is a two-time mom, sharing daughters Kaitlyn, 10, and Kylee, 7, with her ex-husband, Michael Cardwell.
While trying to conceive baby No. 3 with her boyfriend, Eldridge Toney, Anna suffered multiple miscarriages.
“It’s been a long, bumpy road for us,” the Walmart employee told The Sun in June 2021. “It’s been difficult.”
She noted, “I don’t make enough progesterone. I don’t have enough in my system, so it keeps the baby from getting enough nutrition.”
