Baby Emmett’s Fight Against Neuroblastoma

Donation protected
Our one-month-old baby has just been diagnosed with Neuroblastoma, and our world has been turned upside down. We have also received the diagnosis of OMS (Opsoclonus-Myoclonis Syndrome), which is an autoimmune disorder where the body attacks its own nervous system and will require IVIG treatment for at least the next year. OMS is known to cause speech/language delays, motor deficits and cognitively impair children as they get older. We are facing a whirlwind of doctor visits, hospital stays, and the overwhelming uncertainty that comes with such a serious diagnosis. As a parent, it’s heartbreaking to see your child go through something so difficult, and we are doing everything we can to stay strong for our little one.

This diagnosis has brought a wave of unexpected expenses—medical bills, daily commuting to and from the hospital, and the need to take time away from work to be by our baby’s side. Every day is a new challenge, and while we are doing our best to manage, the financial strain is growing. The support from our community means the world to us, and it gives us hope during this incredibly tough time.

We are reaching out for help so we can focus on our baby’s treatments and daily needs without the constant worry about how to make ends meet. While we are so grateful for donations, prayers and shares of our story mean just as much. Thank you for standing with us and helping our family through this journey.
