Burkitt's Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma - Olivia's story

"I took my eyes off God for just a second and the enemy filled me with fear. Thanks to prayers and friends, I was quickly re-focused. We know that our God is an awesome God and we trust him and are not afraid."- Olivia's mom


Meet Olivia:


July 2010 wasn't what the Haveri family expected, at all. Their sweet 7-year-old daughter, Olivia, was just diagnosed with Stage 3 Burkitt's Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. This was a hard diagnosis for, not only Olivia, but her family too. Olivia had cancer.

During Hospital stays Olivia suffers from depression. She is physically tired, and in pain. Her hair has started falling out which makes Livi even more sad. This current round of chemo has Olivia tired and throwing up. With everything that has been happening, The Haveri family trust in God. They trust that our healer will completly rid Livi's body of cancer.

Currently, Olivia has sores on and in her mouth from vomiting. Please pray with us that they go away and she can eat and keep it down. Her spirit is good though, we are very proud of her.

Mrs. Emmy and Mr. Chris have to take turns being with Olivia because they have 3 other kids at home. Even though Gage is 18 and Abby is 13 or 14, Natalie is only 4. It's hard on them being away from Livi. Its rough on Olivia, too. She's only 7 and shes in the hospital fighting cancer so she cant be with her siblings like she used too.

Please keep Olivia Haveri in your prayers. Also, please include Emmy, Chris, Gage, Abby and Natalie in your prayers.

Olivia is currently getting Chemotherapy.

GO Olivia!
