Tiffany’s Story: In July 2001, Karen and Dave Hall got news that would change their life. Their oldest daughter Tiffany was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. She was only 8 years old. For the next four years, Tiffany’s family stayed at the Orange County Ronald McDonald House during much of her treatments and hospitalizations so they could be close to her bedside. Tiffany also stayed at the Orange County Ronald McDonald House during many of her outpatient chemotherapy treatments. This way she wouldn’t get sick in the car on the long drives home to South Orange County. Now she comes by often to visit the staff. Tiffany, her brother David, and sister Ashley, are all home schooled. The entire family takes Tai Kwon Do. Tiffany loves math and science, but her all time favorite is art. Tiffany wants girls and boys worldwide to look for the positive. “No matter what goes on there is always something positive” says Tiffany. “You just have to find it.” Her mom Karen says the positive thing that came out of her daughter’s diagnosis of leukemia was that Tiffany got to try new and fun things. The worst thing was that she couldn’t eat sushi for two years. Her all-time favorite food is sushi. Today Tiffany is going great! Click here to make a donation in Tiffany’s honor. |
