Help Johnny fight leukemia

Donation protected
Family in crisis!
After arriving home from Afghanistan/Iraq because of an injury after 14 years of service. I was home only 4 months. And on the evening of Saturday January 6th. We were given the unimaginable news that Johnny our son,  has Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).
 At the emergency  room where he underwent a full array of testing — Ultrasound, X ray and Blood Analysis. Johnny was found to have various areas of blood clotting.  This lead to more in depth search of his blood and it was then determined that Johnnys hemoglobin reading was( 72) — 170 is a normal level.

But our vibrant and amazing 2 years old boys difficult journey back to health has already begun. And our family needs your help. We have been receiving treatment but with no success. (In my opinion.)
There is a treatment in Australia . This is one link to the information.

The downside is that the F.D.A will not approve the treatment in the United States. After my wife and I have done months of research and talking to multiple Doctors. We feel confident that this is our Solution for our son. But we do not have the expenses to pay for travel, operation, treatment and all the Co-pays. My wife and I have been to countless organization's begging for assistance but with no success.
Every day has become a struggle. Its has become an everyday battle just to come up with the funds for his medications.

Showlow to Phoenix is a 4-hour drive to the hospital. Because of Johnny having to be in the hospital, and always asking for mommy and daddy. I have been missing a lot of work. I just cannot leave him alone there at that hospital. So my wife and I have been taking turns with him. When she is in Phoenix I am in Showlow with our daughter. And I have been giving it all I got. But I continue to fall short, trying to come up with all the funds. So I just prayed, and I asked God to put it in his hands.
I have realized that I cannot do this alone.

So it has come down to this, Johnnys Go Fund Me account.
My friends, this is litterly our only hope at the moment. So I ask from the bottom of my heart for any type of help and PRAYERS. I do not have anywhere else to turn.
Our family thanks you for your time and consideration. And we ask that you PLEASE keep us in your prayers.
Thank you so much.
