Emma's Story

 Hi ! My Name is Emma! 

I'm 9 years old and I was just diagnosed with Aplastic Anemia and I need a bone marrow transplant.  I'm adopted , so my family isn't a perfect match for my bone marrow. Maybe you are!


I have two big brothers who I love to hang out with. Sometimes we go on movie dates ! I love to swim, practice gymnastics and play with my friends. Since my diagnosis , I haven't been able to do much of that and I am hoping to find a bone marrow donor that matches me , so I can get back to the real life of hanging with my family, dancing with my friends, playing sports, and going to school again! (but not math or cleaning my room) Please share my story and help me find my match!

EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS

 Emma’s father, Gregg is a pastor, and her mother, Alisa works in education, however, since she was diagnosed, Alisa Has had to go from working full-time to only a couple days a week. The medical bills keep piling up. There is no gift too small (or too big). Anything you can give will help. 


All gifts will go directly toward the expense of hospital stays, travel, prescriptions, the bone marrow drive and other expenses they incur on the road to saving Emma’s life.
