Hello everyone, for those who may not know me, I'm Brittany. I have had the privilege of calling Olivia my best friend since the fifth grade. On April 30, 2021, she tied the knot with her soulmate, Blake Harvey. To know Olivia and Blake is to truly love them; they are two of the kindest, most caring, and genuine individuals many of us are fortunate to know. Their greatest desire has always been to raise a family.

At their 20-week ultrasound, Olivia was taken to the high-risk center where she spent 6 weeks on strict bed rest. Shortly after being released, she was readmitted to the hospital after going into labor and eventually giving birth. On September 12, 2024, they faced the most challenging day of their lives when their precious baby boy, Bennett, was born prematurely at just 28 weeks. Despite his early arrival, doctors were hopeful for a healthy outcome. Tragically, Bennett lived only 30 minutes after birth. The reasons for this heartbreaking loss remain unknown at this time. Autopsy results are anticipated in 3-4 months.

The family will be holding a private burial for Bennett. During this unimaginably difficult time, I ask that in lieu of flowers, please donate what you can to help cover medical bills, burial costs, etc. Please keep this family in your thoughts and prayers and send them all your love.
