Abbie Barnette Abbie Barnette

Abbie is a happy, fun loving 14 year old that found out in June that she has a rare form of melanoma called Spitz Melanoma. She has been so strong since day 1 and has great faith. Abbie’s family has been overwhelmed by all the love, prayers and support from family, church and community! We thought this site would be a good way for people to keep up with her journey.


Abbie is now an almost 17 year old who has been fighting melanoma for 2 1/2 years.  She is such a warrior!  In the last 2 1/2 years Abbie had multiple surgeries, a scary hospital stay, radiation, chemo, immunotherapy the entire time and it has metastasize to other parts in her body.  Through all this she keeps her faith and continues to look to her future.
