Emma is a bright and courageous teenager who has been deaf since birth and lives with a severe seizure disorder. Her seizures come without warning—turning everyday moments into potentially dangerous situations and limiting her independence.

Despite these challenges, Emma lives with joy, strength, and a deep faith that inspires everyone around her.

Right now, Emma cannot safely be on her own for long periods of time. Simple things many teens take for granted—being home alone, moving freely, or planning for the future—are filled with uncertainty.

A trained seizure support dog could change everything.

This dog would be more than a companion—it would be Emma’s safety and her path toward independence. Seizure support dogs can detect oncoming seizures, stay with their person during an episode, and help them recover safely. For Emma, this means greater freedom, confidence, and peace of mind.

The cost of a trained seizure support dog is $7,000—an amount far beyond what her family can afford.

Emma’s parents have spent their lives faithfully serving others. Her father is a pastor, and her mother is a dedicated children’s minister. For years, they have poured their time, love, and energy into their community—always showing up for those in need.

At home, their care continues. Emma has two sisters who are also deaf, and one of them also lives with seizures. The needs are great, and the financial burden is heavy.

Please support Emma's needs now.

Thank you!
