Help Olivia Beat Brain Cancer

Donación protegida

On Monday January 23rd, my 1 year old niece Olivia was admitted to the hospital for IV fluids after being sick and refusing to eat. While doing scans and tests to try and determine what was causing her fussiness and lack of appetite she was found to have a brain tumor, and was quickly moved to the ICU where she was sedated and had a breathing tube put in.
On that Wednesday, doctors at Arnold Palmer Hospital performed surgery to remove the large tumor from her brain stem. Olivia was kept sedated and intubated until February 1st to let her rest and heal. After the pathology report came back, Olivia was diagnosed with a Posterior Fossa Anaplastic Ependymoma, a type of brain cancer. She will soon begin chemotherapy, and will also need radiation. 
Unfortunately, Olivia is still in the ICU, and will most likely be in the hospital for at least 6 weeks. After that time, she will need frequent hospital visits and hospital stays while getting further treatment. During this time, my sister Danielle and brother-in-law Ricky will not be working and will be using unpaid FMLA leave. As you can imagine this whole situation is very taxing emotionally, physically, and financially. 
Danielle and Ricky are very independent people and hate asking for help, but over the next 6 - 12 months they will be needing lots of help. I ask for any donation you can give to help pay for medical and hospital expenses, as well as all the normal bills that will add up while they are not working.  Any donation, or thoughts and prayers, will be greatly appreciated.
