Support Gracie and Zach Clifton

Support Gracie & Zach Clifton

This page has been set up to support Gracie Clifton (formerly Gracie Albright) and her husband Zach with their medical expenses.

In December 2023, Gracie had a seizure that landed her in the ER. To everyone’s disbelief, the doctors found a 3.5 centimeter tumor in her brain. This was the first symptom revealing the tumor in an otherwise healthy young woman.

On January 19th, Gracie underwent a craniotomy to remove the tumor. After being released a few days later, Gracie ended up back in the hospital for an additional five days. She will work with physical and occupational therapists to regain strength and balance in her left side. She will also be unable to drive for the next six months.

Gracie is employed at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta - Scottish Rite Hospital, where she works with patients who also have traumatic brain injuries in the Comprehensive In-Patient Rehab Unit. The transition from caregiver to patient has been particularly hard on her due to her close professional contact with children with brain tumors.

Moving forward, Gracie will receive results from her pathology report in the upcoming weeks, and from there she and her medical team will make plans for her future care. There is still a lot of uncertainty surrounding what lies ahead, and friends and family from all over want to support Zach and Gracie with prayers and financial support.

All funds will go to the Cliftons to support their financial needs including hospital bills, specialist visits, transportation and food expenses.

We live in a wonderful community that truly rises to meet the needs of its sons and daughters, and The Cliftons are grateful for the outpouring of love and support!
