A Special Gift: Beyonce Surprises Cancer Patient With FaceTime Call [VIDEO]

Ebony Banks just got the surprise of her life when Beyoncé reached out to FaceTime with her.

Beyoncé facetiming with Ebony, a fan with a rare cancer disease whose wish was to meet Beyoncé ???❤️ ———————————————— “High school student Ebony Banks, who has stage four cancer, had her dream came true Wednesday when she received a FaceTime call from her hero, Beyoncé. Banks — who attends Alief Hastings High School in Houston, Texas — has spent most of her senior year at MD Anderson Cancer Center fighting a rare stage four cancer, according to KIAH, a local news station. Earlier this month, the school district held a special early graduation ceremony for Banks, whose nickname is “Ebob,” in the hospital. And as the ultimate graduation present, Banks’ friends and classmates created the hashtag #EBOBMEETSBEYONCE on social media so that she could meet with Beyoncé in an effort to help make one of her biggest dreams come true.” “Beyonce is one of her idols. She admires her so much, so we’re trying to put that on Twitter and Instagram to get Beyonce’s attention,” said Gutierrez. ————————————————–God Bless you, Ebony! We’re praying for you beautiful! #BeyHive ???

Banks, a Houston high school senior battling stage 4 cancer, had one of her biggest wishes fulfilled when Bey surprised her with the call. It came after Ebony’s fans launched a social media campaign, #EBOBMEETSBEYONCE.

“[Banks] is a really big fan of [Beyoncé] and she has so much love for her that we really want to get [Banks] to meet her,” said Banks’ friend Cristal Depaz. “Beyoncé is one of her idols. She admires her so much, so we’re trying to put that on Twitter and Instagram to get Beyoncé’s attention.”

The ploy worked because just a few days later, Bey was on the phone, speaking to Ebony from her hospital bed. The conversation was simple enough— it was all about love.
