Maleah Hill is receiving hospice care at home

INKSTER, Mich. – A community showed up in a big way Saturday for Maleah Hill, a 5-year-old girl in hospice care.

Maleah has battled cancer for three years and had been diagnosed with a brain tumor in August. Doctors said it’s inoperable and that they’ve run out of treatment options.
