Support Ershov - Maxwell family as they grieve sweet Emma
Donation protected
With broken hearts, we share the loss of Emma Ershova, beloved daughter of Dmitry and Katie, sister of Alina. After a sudden and devastating brain hemorrhage, Emma passed away on April.3/2025. Her spirit, compassion, and joy touched everyone who knew her. On Sunday April.6/2025 in the midst of unimaginable grief, Emma gave the gift of life to six others through organ donation, a final profound act of generosity. So many people have been touched by Emma in their life young and old. Many of them gathered at the hospital to see her off for her hero's walk.
The Ask:
Many have asked how to help. We’re setting up this GoFundMe to support Dmitry, Katie, and Alina as they navigate residual medical expenses, time away from work, and the deep emotional toll of losing a child and a sibling. This fund will help support ongoing mental health care for the family. The road ahead is long, and access to grief counseling and therapy will be essential as they begin to navigate life after such an unimaginable loss.
Every contribution, no matter the size, brings comfort and support. Any unused funds will be donated to the The Children's Hospital Foundation of Manitoba. Thank you for holding this family in your hearts.
