Welcome! Our dear friend, Emily Wilson, was diagnosed with Ewings Sarcoma of the skull/brain in Feb. 2009 when she was just 10 years old. After 2 brain surgeries, 14 rounds of chemotherapy, and 6 weeks of proton beam radiation, she enjoyed one year of remission.
Sadly, the tumor has returned and Emily will need to undergo aggressive treatment in the days/weeks to come. We pray for complete healing for Emily; and strength, courage and peace for her entire family!!
We simply cannot sit by and do nothing!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE get on your knees and PRAY for this family!! And then click the "donate now" button and contribute. NO AMOUNT IS TOO SMALL. All proceeds will go directly to the Wilson family. NOBODY should have to worry about finances while fighting for their daughter's life!!
The money raised MIGHT ease a tiny bit of the financial burden, but the real goal is to overwhelm this family with love and support!! This is your chance to make an enormous difference in the life of a very sweet little girl and her family.
*****UPDATE******After undergoing aggressive treatment in California, Emily enjoyed several months of being a normal 13 year old. She was even bored on occassion which is a very great thing. :-) Despite favorable blood results and clean brain scans, it has recently been discovered that Emily has developed a couple of large tumors on her lungs. There are very few options this time around, and the course much more challenging. You can only imagine how unsettling this all is for their entire family. Please prayerfully consider how you might help. They are asking for privacy as they hunker down and hold each other close. Please, no phone calls or emails...PRAYERS, however, are welcome!!!!
****UPDATED JANUARY 23, 2012********
Emily has been admitted to Children's Hopsital for pain management where she will likely remain for the duration of her illness. The cancer is rapidly taking over her entire body. During the brief moments when she is conscious, she is smiling and attempting to converse with her loved ones. Sweet, sweet child. Sadly, her time with us is short. We have had the gift of several bonus months with Emily, but her time is running out. Please PRAYERFULLY consider how you might help.
*****UPDATE****** Emily went home to be with her Lord on January 27, 2012. Her strength, courage and JOYFUL heart touched more lives in her short 13 years then many will in a lifetime. She was greatly loved and will be greatly missed!!
