Delaney, who was diagnosed with stage 4 neuroblastoma at age 8, is currently in hospice care in Colorado. On December 8, her mother, Wendy Campbell, announced on Facebook that her daughter’s cancer had spread to her brain. She said, “[It’s] something we had been able to avoid for so many years.” She added, "Our goal now is to keep Delaney as comfortable as possible and keep her spirits uplifted as she travels on a journey we fought so hard to avoid."
