And yet, sadly, there are some things that no parent can prevent. Accidents and illness are as much a part of human life as joy and celebration are, and each year far too many children find themselves suffering from situations and ailments that are wholly out of their control.

Emma’s distraught parents decided they would do all they could to fulfill their daughter’s wishes with the time they had left.
