Tiffany and Albree Shaffer of Cincinnati, were informed on New Year’s Day that their 18-month-old daughter, Callie, was diagnosed with advanced neuroblastoma, a type of cancer that develops from immature nerve cells. A week later, the couple was informed that Callie was in stage four and in need of 18 months of chemotherapy and radiation.
Shortly after the heartbreaking news was shared with their families, Tiffany Shaffer’s sister, Lorrie Teate, created the online fundraiser to help raise money for Callie’s medical bills.
