Team Olivia

My sister-in-law Olivia (Livi) Martinez was diagnosed in November 2018 with Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or pre-leukemia. She has been a patient at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX since early December. She has already undergone chemotherapy and in the coming months she will continue to do everything she can to remain cancer-free, which will include ongoing blood transfusions and an eventual bone marrow transplant. I'm starting a gofundme to help her pay for the significant medical bills that are coming, and to help her family pay for the cost of living in Houston to be with her while she fights through this.

Olivia is the daughter of Norma and Toño, and sister to TJ and Nick Martinez. If you're lucky enough to know her, you know that she lights up any room, that her smile and positive, outgoing personality is infectious and also admirable, and it hurts to see this happening to someone so full of love, generosity and shine. She was engaged last year to her wonderful fiance Jay-ar and we're all praying for her to recover soon so she can get back to wedding planning.

Please help support Olivia during this difficult time, and please share this with others. We appreciate all the love, prayers and support you can send to Olivia and our family.


Mi Cunada Olivia ( Livi) Martinez fue diagnosticada en Noviembre del 2018 con Meylodysplastic Sindrome (MDS), o pre leusemia. Ella ha sido paciente en el MD ANDERSON Centro de Cancer en Houston Tx, desde los primeros de Diciembre. En los meses que aproximan, ella continuara haciendo todo lo posible para permanener libre de cancer, eso incluye varias transfusiones de sangre, y eventualmente un transplante de medula. Estoy empesando este GoFundMe para ayudarla pagar significante gastos medicos que estan por venir, y para ayudar a su familia pagar con el gasto de vivir actualmente en Houston para poder acompanarla mientras ella pelea contra esto. 

Olivia is la hija de Norma y Toño, y hermana de Tj y Nick Martinez. Si tienes la dicha de conocerla , sabras que ella ilumina cual quier lugar, que su personalidad y sonrisa es tan contagiosa aparte de admirable, y duele ver que algo asi le este pasando a alguien tan llena de amor, generosidad  y brillo. Este ultimo ano se comprometio con su prometido maravilloso Jay-ar y todos estamos orando que se recupere pronto para que siga con sus planes de boda.

Porfavor ayudenos a apoyar a Oliva en este tiempo de dificultad,y favor de compartir con otros. Estamos muy agredecidos por todo el amor, las oraciones y apoyo que le puedan brindar a Olivia y nuestra familia.
