Help Callen Beat HLH!
Donation protected
On September 30, 2013, our 14 month old nephew, Callen Brunetti, was diagnosed with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis or HLH. HLH is a rare, life-threatening disorder of the immune system. He is currently undergoing a rigorous treatment protocol that includes chemotherapy, steroids and anti-inflammatory medications. He and his mom spend two days a week in the hospital for treatment and blood tests. This is the hardest thing Callen and his family has ever gone through, and this is why they need your help.
Callen is the son of Jeff and Carey Brunetti. He also has an older sister, Mackenzie. Their worlds have been rocked. On top of this horrible illness, Carey is pregnant with their third baby and Jeff is working two jobs to support their family.
This is the most stressful time of their lives. The whole family is scared, worried and we don't know what's next. I am here asking for donations for the family because those donations may help alleviate a little bit of that stress for Jeff and Carey.
The costs keep piling up. Callen needs genetic testing and the insurance will only cover part of the out-of-network costs. Cord blood banking for their new baby could help save Callen's life. It's not covered by insurance. Any little bit helps. $5 would help cover parking on Callen's treatment days. $20 would cover their outpatient co-pay.
Thank you in advance for your support. We are all so apprciative of the kindness that has already been shown to this beautiful family. Let's help Callen fight to beat HLH! God bless.
