‘She gave one hell of a fight for 10 months she passed away with her family around her like she won’t and we will will be updating y’all with more information as we get it today [sic],’ Shannon continued.

‘We love y’all and continued prayers and thoughts for our family [during] this difficult time,’ she added.

Anna was diagnosed with stage four adrenal cancer in January after complaining of stomach pain.

The Mayo Clinic reports adrenal carcinoma is a rare cancer that affects the adrenal glands in the kidneys. The adrenal glands produce hormones which deliver instructions to virtually every organ and tissue in the body.

The mother of two girls, Kaitlyn, 11, and Kylee, eight, underwent chemotherapy and immunotherapy in an attempt to beat her cancer.

Over the summer, the From Not to Hot star revealed that Anna’s cancer was terminal.

‘We know it’s terminal. She’s stage 4. She’s not gonna go into remission,’ she wrote, adding: ‘We’ve all accepted that, so I just tell people one day at a time ’cause you never know.’

'With the breaking heart, we are announcing that @annamarie35 is no longer with us,' June began her heartbreaking post. 'She passed away in my home last night peacefully at 11:12 PM'

On Friday she took to social media to ask her 758,000 Instagram followers for prayers.

‘Y’all we are asking for prayers for our family as we are going through this process,’ the Here Comes Honey Boo-Boo alum wrote.

‘We really appreciate y’all for all the thoughts and prayers and we will update y’all whenever we can,’ she said, adding, ‘just know that all of your thoughts and your prayers are very much appreciated during this time, she explained, adding the hashtags, ‘#mamajune #cancersucks #family #prayers.’

She didn’t mention her daughter explicitly, but her followers knew immediately she was referring to Cardwell.

‘Anna sending you many many many prayers. God bless you sweetheart. ❤️,’ one concerned fan wrote.

‘Lord please have Anna in your hands and help her and her family In this time that they need you,’ added another.

One follower empathized with June’s struggle, writing, ‘From a mom of a cancer warrior.. angel.. my sincere thoughts and prayers for you all.’

June’s 23-year-old daughter, Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Efird reposted adding, ‘Say a prayer for our family.’

Eventually, Anna’s cancer spread to her liver, kidneys and lungs.

The average age of patients with adrenal cancer is 46, but it can occur in people of any age, even in children, according to the American Cancer Society.

Adrenocortical carcinomas start in the outer layer of the adrenal glands, which are next to the kidneys. The adrenal glands are small glands producing hormones.

Most growths that form in the adrenal glands are noncancerous.
