Hey guys and gals!
Listen I know times are bad for alot of us and some of us always need help! HOWEVER Times have been HORRIBLE for The Harvey Family! I Deployed in 2007 With Spc. Bryan Harvey, just shortly after he and his wife had gotten married. Heather, Bryan's wife also had a brother in our Unit (4th BDE 10th MTN). While we were Deployed Heather lost her brother while Bryan and Marcus were at FOB Loyalty Iraq. Bryan got to witness his best friend and his wife's brother be killed due to indirect fire. Bryan escorted Marcus home to her brother. I tell you that back story to bring you up to where the Harvey Family is now! Bryan and Heather's daughter was complaining of some leg pain on November 3rd after doing some trick-or-treating with her brother. After a stop to the hospital to figure out what was going on, and a couple blood tests later Bryan and Heather got to find out that their daughter Anya has a form of leukemia. I posted a link to a site that they are currently trying to raise money to simply survive/pay bills. Please help if you can and please give what you can. This is a family forged out of hardship and has been through enough! If you can and what you can....lets rally and help them out! They are one of our own!!! If you need help finding the website, please jump over to Facebook and look me up on there and I will point you in the right direction or Call/Text my cell phone [login to see] and I will help you out!

A good friend of mine's son had something like this. I can't remember the name but it was in his bones. With many looong trips to the hospital, spinal taps and chemo he is back to wrestling his 2 brothers and playing sports. He has another year of tests and treatments but is doing great. If you go on FB and look for Prayers for Brady that's his site. If the leukemia is the same they may be able to help them out. My prayers to the family.

And to everyone else that has helped get this thread going...this is the update that Heather and Bryan sent out today. Please if you can share this and please please please help me out. I want to keep this in the open and remind people that just because its a new week.... doesn't mean this we can brush it under the rug. They still need ALOT of help and the donation site i still open. I.m throwing down another donation, I really am trying to encourage everyone to do the same and or share it around Facebook and all the other social media site to get some help. I really appreciate all ya'lls help!

Today's chemo treatment has been quite brutal on Anya's little body. She is having an issue either with the decadron (steroid) that she has been taking twice a day finally catching up with her, or the vincristine really hurting her muscles. What's probably happening is combination of both of those two medicines working together and causing joint pain and atrophy to her leg muscles.
It makes me really sad because when she sits down and then tries to get up she makes this horrible wincing face and makes a quiet grunting noise. She even asked Daddy to carry her up the stairs after dinner because her legs hurt too bad.
We also cut her hair again tonight. It has been falling out in the shower and at night, and we just decided to even it up all over. She looks adorable, of course, but it's just another 'new' thing happening to her and I know that is difficult for her.
Please pray for peace for her and that her pain medicine starts helping take her pain away better. Thanks, all!

Poor little angel. This is a very difficult story to follow. We all have difficulties in life, but nothing is worse than having a family member's well-being in jeopardy. The worst case scenario is when your own small child is facing something that render you powerless to help. All we can do is trust in put our trust in God's hands and have faith. I wish I had the words of encouragement that the family is in desperate need of hearing but I am just a child in my understanding of why things happen the way they do. I used to get so depressed and angry when things got really rough for me. At the time, I felt like I was at rock bottom. As I grew in my understanding and faith in God, I look back and realize that what happened to cause all my hopelessness was nothing that God couldn't pull me through. We are never given more than we can handle......as long as we know that God is in control of our lives and that his will be done. Prayers from Arizona my brother.

About 1,000 dollars away and honestly, from experience it will be a lot more than 4,500. When David died it was 22,000 or so.
