“Oh my goodness, showed this to my hubby, we both teared up,” one user commented.
“Oh wow! Please Santa! I’m with you Allie! - so precious!” another user said.
Allie’s brother Robert was diagnosed with cancer in December 2010, according a Facebook page called “Robert The Great”, which the family set up to chronicle his health.
The teen is “as innocent as they come” a post on the page reads.
“Still believes in Santa and that dumb Elf on the Shelf, he still plans to play baseball again and he loves his family with his whole heart.”
The page asks followers to donate to the CURE Childhood Cancer foundation.
