About this fundraiser

This page is to help raise money for Emmies emergency upcoming health journey. Over the last few years Emmies health has been declining, such as more muscle weakness, constant fatigue ,memory loss, tingling in her extremities as well as unexplained anemia. Thru everything she has continued to stay her sassy self. Unfortunately this  Wednesday February 4th , they found a para spinal mass at the T-1 thru T-3 spinal area. Her Neurologist wasted no time and referrals went in at first they were planning on consults in April at the Mayo in Rochester. A call was received this afternoon (Thursday the 5th) from Ems neurologist and the team at Mayo will be reaching out with what sounds like a ASAP admittance by personal vehicle once all of her records are reviewed as they fear her tumor is fast growing. This will be putting an extreme financial burden on the family as this is very unexpected  and gas, lodging, food will all need to be covered as well as accommodations at home for both of Emmies brothers while she is seeking care. At this time we do not know the extent of the tumor, the type, the treatment plan or how long she will be at the Mayo, If you can donate please do everything helps. Please keep her and the family in your prayers.
