Funeral Expenses for Steve Harris

Donation protected

On July 23, 1956 , a kind hearted, vivacious, and loving man came into this world and blessed us with his presence. For anyone that has come in contact with Brother Steve Harris, knows that he is a man of God and has a heart made of gold. Brother Steve Harris has always taken in those that needed help. He has helped instill virtuous traits in not only his family and friends, but to his community.

Unexpectedly in April 2017 Brother Steve Harris went to the emergency room due to chest pains only to learn that he had suffered a heart attack. He had to have an emergency surgery. By the grace of God , and with the help of medication, and support from his family he has been heart attack free ever since. However this life saving medication is very costly especially without health insurance.

On August 11, 2017 Brother Steve Harris wasn't feeling well causing him to go back to the hospital . He was treated for pneumonia and also received a shocking diagnosis of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) . Since Brother Harris's diagnosis he has loss of his appetite and has become very weak.

September 1st, 2017 , Brother Steve Harris became unresponsive and suffered a mild stroke. Brother Harris's current White blood cell count has surpassed the normal levels of 5,000 to 10,000 by thousands (201,000). He had to have a blood transfusion and once his body has time to recooperate will have another one.

We are asking you for your prayers and donations to assist with Brother Steve Harris's medical needs. Let's return the favor for all the acts of kindness he has done throughout his life. And for the acts of kindness he will continue to do once he makes a speedy and full recovery.

Please share this with friends and family via social media. Below is a link to an article describing exactly what Chronic Myeloid Leukemia is. Let share this and create awareness for our friends and loved ones. Thank you all in advance for your time, kindness, compassion, consideration, and donations. May you each be blessed in return.
