Brandon Webb Cancer Benefit
We are having a benefit for Brandon Webb as he is undergoing aggressive treatment for stage 4 melanoma in his brain, eye, and lungs. Brandon and his girlfriend are also expecting their first baby in OCT, and while he is in his current treatment, he isn’t able to drive or work, causing extreme hardship on the expecting couple with medical expenses, living expenses, transportation, and preparation for the arrival of their baby. We are asking for your help to support the couple in anyway possible, even more so with your prayers!! Brandon is the son of Brock and Jessica (Collins) Webb and Rachel and the late Pete Munds.
There is a benefit account set up at Heartland Credit Union under “Brandon Webb Benefit” that will have a link shortly to donate there as well.
On Aug 16th, at the VFW 755, we are having bands, silent auction, 50/50 raffles, booze coolers, bags tournament, and a meal. Any donations to the raffle or silent auction are much appreciated!
We have a T-Shirt benefit website set up at https://www.impressionsdesignco.com/melanoma-awareness with proceeds going to them as well.
On April 18th, Brandon underwent a minor surgical procedure to remove a spot on his neck. The biopsy did come back as malignant melanoma. June 14th Brandon underwent a CT scan at St. John’s for chronic headaches and tumors in his brain, eye, and lungs were then found. He underwent an emergency craniotomy on June 19th to remove the brain tumors. The biopsy on those came back as stage 4 melanoma. At this time, the radiation and oncology team are working together, diligently, with a care plan to start to tackle to the other tumors. He since had a port placed in his chest for chemo treatment and fitted to get started with radiation once they finish with more scans and a bronchoscopy to test the lung tumors for melanoma also. He will be starting aggressive radiation and chemo this month as well.
