Andreasen competed again at the 2008 Summer Paralympics, and was the Faroe Islands' flagbearer during the Games' opening ceremony. She did not win a medal. It was her last participation in the Paralympic Games.
There were no Olympic-sized pools in the Faroe Islands, where Andreasen trained in a 25-metre pool.
