The Rathje family needs our help

My name is Jennifer Hallett. I am friends with the Rathjes. I am writing this in hopes of helping my longtime friends, Sara and Marty Rathje raise money towards their daughters medical care and the rest of their monthly bills, while they spend time with their daughter in the hospital. Harper Rathje is 7 yrs old and was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL). It's a blood cancer that results when abnormal white blood cells accumulate in the bone marrow. (ALL) progresses rapidly, replacing healthy cells that produce functional lymphocytes with leukemia cells that can not mature properly. She is currently at Children's Hospital & Medical Center in Omaha, NE. She is surrounded by very caring and knowledgable doctors and nurses committed to getting her cancer free.

Harper's stay here will be a long tough journey and therefore will create financial hardships not covered by insurance.

As many of you know, asking for help especially financial help is very difficult and humbling. We know many of you are asking "how can I help?" To be a blessing to Harper and the family we are graciously and humbly asking for financial donations that will be used towards unexpected expenses.
