Hi Diane, David and MaryGrace,
Athough 2008 is almost gone, the wonderful, beautiful thoughts of my little Goddaughter ^Emily^ will never go away. I will have them forever and they are the most prescious memories I have of 2008. I'm thinking about each of you as the New Year approaches. I love each of you.

Hi My Dearest Adamson Friends,
I started to write "Happy Holidays" but I just couldn't. Although I know you are making every attempt to do so, I can't imagine the struggle you are dealing with. Diane and David you are both such an inspiration to everyone that know you. I know you will do everything in your power to make sure MaryGrace has a beautiful Christmas. Not a moment goes by without beautiful memories of your little ^Emily^ come flooding in. What a precious angel she is. I love you all so much and I do wish you a beautiful Christmas.

I have followed Emily's journey for some time, although I don't think I signed the guest book too often. But I return here every several weeks in anticipation of another update on how you are all doing. I know in my heart how you are doing, but I love to read the grace and graciousness with which you write about your beloved daughters and the earthly loss of one of them.
I am comforted to know you are people of faith, especially when it has been tested in such a painful way. What a wonderful testament of Christ's love and your love of Christ to read your words of faith amidst such a palpable loss. Mary Grace is blessed to have parents who hold such wisdom in their hearts, wisdom that enables you to make choices that strengthen her foundation of family and faith.
This is the season of miracles, and although we did not get the exact miracle we prayed for, we did get the miracle of Emily being cancer free, pain free, and fear free. She lives in grace for eternity and in our hearts at least that long! So the miracle I am praying for this Christmas is that your family will feel Emily's presence with each beat of your hearts, that you will sense her presence as you continue to be a living legacy of her courage and love, and that your faith will always sustain you, direct you, and be a beacon of God's love.
Thank you for sharing your family with us.

Please if I have already thanked you for the "hear betters"...just accept it as another gesture of love. Amy received them and how touched she was. She called me crying because she remembered Emily and was so grateful. After our cry we began to talk about how blessed Chloe was to be the receiver of them. Chloe has had the molds made and whatever the first step is...so we are anxious to see how they help her. Again, thank you for helping her...how humbled we are that you chose Chloe. Our hearts and prayers are with you always. Please know the first time Chloe wears them and beams with joy to be able to hear we will know her "angel Emily" is looking close by. Love to you all.

I got this poem in the mail today and I'm sharing it with all my friends that lost their babies this year.
MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM HEAVEN
I still hear the songs
I still see the lights
I still feel your love
on cold wintery nights
I still share your hopes
and all of your cares
I'll even remind you
to please say your prayers
I just want to tell you
you still make me proud
You stand head and shoulders
above all the crowd
Keep trying each moment
to stay in His grace
I came here before you
to help set your place
You don't have to be
perfect all of the time
He forgives you the slip
If you continue the climb
To my family and friends
please be thankful today
I'm still close beside you
In a new special way
I love you all dearly
now don't shed a tear
Cause I'm spending my
Christmas with Jesus this year
In January my cousin passed away and then Tyler passed in April. My uncle Mark purchased this poem in May to send out this Christmas to help with our losses, he ended up suddenly passing in June.
Thinking of all my friends this holiday season and knowing how you are feeling.

Today's day is a special day to be grateful, so, let's be grateful to the Lord for giving you the opportunity to be the best parents for ^Emily^ and Mary Grace, grateful for the opportunity of caring for others and grateful because you know the promise of eternal life that God has for all of us. ^Emily^ is celebrating today with you from heaven. Remember that the most powerful thing in life is Love, and when you give love you'll receive love. We know it is difficult, that is why our prayers are with you today and always. The Butterfly Garden for ^emily^ is ^heavenly gorgeous^. With all our love.

I know it is so hard without our children here with us and the holidays can certainly be a painful reminder.
Both Emily and Ryan certainly bring special meaning to this famous quote...

Hi My Friends,
I am so impressed with the amount of people that not only little Emily touched in her life but also each of you and MaryGrace. This is evident to me in the beautiful butterfly garden created for Emily. The little butterflies each child made was so touching. Each one of them thought of Emily as they made them. The love and concern shared by each of the teachers, counselors and especially the principal was so impressive. I know how humble you and Diane are but I just have to let you know your strong love for each other, your Emily and MaryGrace and faith in our God is always present in the journal. I love you guys!

Alex (my daughter) brought her butterfly home today. She couldn't wait to show me what she made for Emily and she told me all about the garden. I haven't seen the completed project yet, but it looks wonderful in the photos.
Our family prays for yours as you near the holidays. Alex enjoys playing with MaryGrace at Rock Creek. She looks up to her, as although the are both the same age, Alex is in 2nd grade due to her Bday. Best wishes with each day that passes.

Dear Adamson family,
I think I've only signed your guestbook once before but I have followed Emily's story for about a year and I have really been affected by her story. I am senior in high school and lost a close friend to childhood leukemia when I was 13.
I really hope this doesn't sound weird but Emily was in my dreams last night! It seems strange because I never had a chance to meet her (or you). I don't remember too much of the dream, but she was happy and healthy and I remember that she handed me a drawing of a horse running freely through a field. I just thought you might want to know that your amazing daughter even manages to touch the lives of people she never met!!
I am thinking of you in this difficult time. Please know that I am doing all I can to raise money for childhood cancer research to eradicate this disease!! Inspired by my friend Nora and other amazing kids such as Emily, I've raised over $8500 for Memorial Sloan Kettering. Emily will always be remembered! Thank you for sharing her story!
Sincerely,

No one can know what you are feeling. That is an absolute truth as each loss that a family or individual bears is his/her own. After the loss of my husband, I too was given many opportunities to seek help. But,I didn't feel the need or desire to go. He died early in the year, but I did attend the hospice session offered before the first holiday season without him. There were people there who had just lost a loved one or their family member/friend had been gone for years. We all cried a little and maybe learned a lot just by being brave enough to attend - not even participating. Now after almost two years, I just started seeing a counselor. It's time for me to understand deep in my heart that the grief, anger, hurt, and pain is normal and that I am normal and that although he is not coming back, although I will always hurt when thinking of him, it will be manageable to keep on living. May God bless you with His strength, His peace and His love through each other, through Mary Grace and through all those who love, care for, and continue to pray for you (including me).

Grief can not be contained or conformed to any standard. What is normal is what is normal to you. While your journal entries exhibit pain that is palpable, they also are filled with hope, determination, and a deeper sense of family and truth than most people experience or share. I trust that the Lord will lead you as you continue on this journey and that He alone will determine your needs and how best to meet them. Counsel and consolation are what He's promised us!
I thank God that Mary Grace is moving forward in peace and joy. Children make it look so easy at times, don't they? We can learn so much from them.
Every day has a new mercy. I believe that there is a special angel in Heaven watching over you...and she must be very proud of the strength, courage, and compassion that define you as you travel this path.

Revelation 21:2-5 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

Selah. There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.

Hi Diane and David! I think of you guys often and wonder how you are getting along with the challanges you face. Because of Emily and your site, I now receive updates from numerous CaringBridge sites and pray daily for quite a few kids. It is shocking to see even a small tip of the iceberg of so many sick children all over this country and beyond. Your loss has made me acutely aware and determined to face challenges we have had lately with our teenage son. Suffice it to say, I realize that you would give anything to be able to be with and help and guide Emily and because I am fortunate enough to still have that opportunity to help our son, I cannot and will not give up on him. I am so sorry for your loss of your little muffy bear. Sincerely, Pam

Dear Adamson Family
We are always praying for you. We undestand the pain and how hard must be for you to get up everyday and deal with reality. The way you express your feelings may help you with this reality and may let your heart and soul feel less heavy. The only way to go on with this sorrow is putting your faith on the Lord our God. He is the only one who can give us hope. He loves you and He is with you every moment. Sometimes it is so hard, but those are the moments that you have to trust on his words, his promises, his love. The only way to get those promises to become a reality is having God in your heart and do the good things he tell us to do. Life is complicated but it is beautiful at the same time. Enjoy Mary Grace everyday, enjoy the memories of ^Emily^, trust in God. When things get no good and you feel sad, look up, God is looking down giving you love and telling you that ^Emily^ is with him in heaven. God bless you everyday and comfort you always. Love

I have never walked in the shoes you are wearing right now, but when I read your entry my heart breaks. When your child is diagnosed with cancer, death is a fear you always worry about. It is a thought that always stays in the back of your mind that sneaks up on you sometimes. It is a thought you pray never comes true. And sadly with this terrible disease, death happens more times than it should. A matter of fact, one time is to way to many times.
I personally never dealt with losing a child. But when I read your journal I understand what you are saying, one hundred percent. Although to understand and experience it are two different things, that is for sure. I wish there was something to do or say to make it all better. I know that is not really possible. Just know that you are not alone in your grieving. Others grieve with you and for you.
Big hugs to you from PA. God bless you all. May God continue to guide you as you carry on one day at a time and one foot in front of the other. You are walking a road that is hard to travel but you are thought of often. Bless you.

Dear Diane,
I'm not quite sure how I came to visit Emily's website today, but I just wanted to say that I'm sorry for your pain and I'm sorry your little girl is no longer here for you to hold and smell and cuddle. It must truly be an unbearable pain. I also visited Little Gus' website, and it is just so much pain this disease causes. What an unfair thing for children to have to experience. The only thing I guess that might perhaps give on some type of peace is to try to imagine them in God''s glory, without suffering and pain. But truly, my heart goes out to you and your family. Again, we are thinking of you and your family and most especially of your precious daughter Emily. God Bless, Lynette Vallejo

In reading your entries I am always struck by your profound, honest thoughts and those alone are even another tribute to your Emily.

We read this psalm this morning in church. Wanted to share a portion of it...praying!
Psalms 34:6-10 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.

5. Thou on my head in every youth didst smile,
And though rebellious and perverse meanwhile,
Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee.
On to the close, O Lord, abide with me.
6. I need Thy presence every passing hour;
What but Thy grace can foil the Tempter's power?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me!
7. I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;
Ills have no weight and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still if Thou abide with me.
8. Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes,
Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies.
Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!

1. Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me!
2. Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see.
O Thou, who changest not, abide with me!
3. Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word,
But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord,
Familiar, condescending, patient, free.
Come not to sojourn, but abide with me.
4. Come not in terror, as the King of kings,
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings;
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea.
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.

Your story hits home with us also. We were blessed with twins on july 13th 2003. Our boys were born full term and healthy. At nine weeks, the larger of the two started chemo for a blood disorder. He did this for 3 1/2 years. We just had our birthday party this year and we go through the ups and downs, this was our second one without Zac. He earned his angel wings April 2007. His twin Kyle just turned five and is still looking for him and asking when he will return from heaven, we answer all his questions but at his age it is hard to process for him. I'm so sorry about emily. Please visit us at our sites, maybe you would be interested in one of our memory chests. Take care,

I know that you have to find a way to live with your loss each and every new day and that there cannot be any words to ease the deepest pain that you feel. The only words that I can send are reminders of a better place where we will all meet again - I too will get the pleasure of meeting your beautiful angel. God does not want you to suffer and I feel that what you wrote about the birthday celebration for Mary Grace is the best approach to take - I will continue to pray for the blessing to come to your family to deal with each new "holiday" with grace and peace in your hearts as you face them with memories of past and joy for the new. With many passing tears and prayers...

First off I would like to wish Mary Grace and Emily a happy birthday. Although Emily is not here on earth to celebrate with you. I am sure she knows you are thinking of her and how much you miss and love her.
It must really be hard for all of you. I wish there was something I could do or say to ease your pain,just know that you are not in this alone. Others often think of your Emily and care about your family. God bless.

Dearest Diane, David and MaryGrace,
Although your hearts are very heavy-especially today-don't ever think that your precious Emily is remembered by only a chunk of granite and a bronze plaque, your prescious angel is remembered for all the love and happiness she brought to so many and her strength, her bravery and her courage that SO inspires (and always will) so many EVERYDAY. It is truly hardest for you both and MaryGrace, because your precious Emily is celebrating her birthday, in heaven, cradled in the arms of our savior Jesus Christ. She is incredibly happy and wishing that happiness for her beloved family. She will be blowing down from heaven her kisses to all of you, and helping MaryGrace blow out her birthday candles.
We pray for God's peace to wrap around all of you and comfort you --today--and always.
Love always, Jan, JoAnn, Frankie and Michael.

To the Adamson family - I, too, will say a prayer for all of you today. Although, my grief is 'different' than losing a child, I lost my husband of 38 years unexpectedly in February 2007. He was a lung cancer survivor for 4 years 6 months, but died of a massive heart attack. I know he's in heavan. I know that he is free from the fear of the cancer returning. But, I also know that I miss him - every holiday, anniversary, birthday is a reminder that where God had joined two as one - there is now only one. I can't tell you the pain will go away, but moments of peace will come, moments of joy will return and your love for dear sweet Emily will live on. Mary Grace happy birthday!

HI Adamson family, I'm stopping by to say hello and that I'm thinking of you all, especially Mary Grace. I'm sure she feels the one bowl thing too. It's so unfair. I still have a hard time typing "I'm praying, instead of "WE" are praying, thinking of you, etc., and I still have trouble watching the video's of Papa Scott, even after 4 years. I'm glad I have them for the kids though, and I do smile now when I see him being the funny guy that he was and being able to share that with the kids. I hope you are having a busy summer, and getting through each day. Sometimes it's one moment at a time, just remembering to breath. God Bless you! Love, Ellen and the kids.

"My Hope is Built on Nothing Less"
by Edward Mote, 1797-1874
1. My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
2. When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
3. His oath, His covenant, and blood
Support me in the whelming flood;
When every earthly prop gives way,
He then is all my Hope and Stay.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
4. When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found,
Clothed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne!
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

I have followed Emily's journey now for many months and cannot begin to imagine how you, nor any of the other parents who loose their children to this disease, cope with such a huge loss. My heart aches for you and your family.
I know that updating Emily's journal must take great courage and I see where you are coming from in that now you feel it is about y'all instead of Emily, but let me encourage you in this. As a parent of three girls, everytime I read a post by a parent after loosing a child, I hug my children closer, thank God that they are healthy and say a few more I love you's to them because of the words and emotions you as parents are able to convey on your journals. There are a few children I follow on caringbridge and Emily was one of them, and I was so sad when I read of her passing. She certainly seemed like an amazing angel and you seemed like amazing parents taking that journey with her. She was very lucky to have you, as you were to have her. God Bless you all, and please continue to update us if you can.

Thank you for the wonderful picture of the girls before this madness descended. It is adorable and just warms the heart to see that beautiful Emily smile again.

Your words are heart breaking, David and we thank you for updating and sharing with us. I think so many of us feel that the essence of Emily now remains with her family and certainly very strongly with Mary Grace. Hearing about your lives now gives us comfort as we check into Emily's site. It's our way of staying connected with her. I would not say that you are moving on, but moving forward, as you take Emily with you, that is, the memories of all she was on earth and the way she is now, her spirit watching over you three. We continue to pray and send love for your family.

2 Corinthians 4:15-18 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Dear David, Diane and Grandma Ruth,
You remain a constant example of real faith in Christ. In a day and age in which Christianity is often presented as a feel-good, name it & claim it religion, it's refreshing and encouraging to see real people deal with real problems and not be afraid to wrestle with God's purposes (reminds me of Job's experience with God). Please continue to pray hard as you continue to process all the questions concerning Emily and continue to live with this great loss. Please continue to embrace God even when you don't feel like it. Please know that He is there even when He doesn't make sense. May God surround you with people that will pray for you and be great listeners; may He deliver you from those who will only present cute, superficial and unhelpful religious cliches. You are in our prayers.
In His grip,

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Reading what you wrote about Mary Grace prompted me to want to write and tell you that I believe that the two of you, Diane and David, are responsible for her ability to move forward with such Grace. You have filled her with a certainty that Emily is in a better place with the God that you have raised her to believe in. It's because of the way that you handled the entire situation with Emily, and the unswerving faith you have clung to, that Mary Grace can move on as a child...filled, not with sadness and tears, but with the same unswerving faith that she has watched her parents live. I can not imagine having to go through the pain that you have, and are, going through, and I can only hope that I would show the strength and courage that you possess. My thoughts are with you.

If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope. My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning. Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption. And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Hello, David, Diane and MaryGrace~I am a new reader to your site--I found you just before Emily received eternal life. My little one, Nicholas, is with Emily in the glorious presence of Jesus in heaven--Nick also had NB--but NO MORE! As I read your journal history, I found out that we just missed you in NY at MSKCC in December of '06. Our Nick died one year ago. I will share with you four scripture promises that have pulled me out of the deep pit of despair many times this year:
John 14:1-3 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am."
Romans 8:18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
Revelation 21:4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be NO MORE death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.
Luke 23:43 Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, TODAY you will be with me in paradise."
Grieving along side of you, but comforted by the promises of Jesus Christ,

hey you guys! i just wanted to say that im still praying for you guys. in fact, i just had a prayer meeting with ten other friends last night on emily. the LORD told us, tht emily is having a maginficent time, and that she is pain free. i was so shocked to hear that. our LORD told us that and spoke to us! i also love that poem by kayla ziadie. it is very touching, and i think the last part is true; she is being embraced by our JESUS in peace, and saying to our LORD look! they're celebrating me!
in CHRIST'S name,

I have been coming to your site and reading about Emily for a while now. It has taken a while for me to get up the courage to know what to say. At a time like this, there isn't really much one can say to make things seem ok. I just want you to know that I am so very sorry for your loss. I pray that you guys will receive all of Gods Grace and Mercy!! And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.

Be comforted by the fact that God is praying for you!
Romans 8:26-28 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

I'm so sorry for the loss your family has had to suffer. However so glad Emily had your love. I'm sure your memories will last forever and I wish your family much strength and courage to face each day. I'm sure your beautiful daughter is sending you all the butterflies!

You are right to accept the reminders and memories. These are her ways of telling and showing you that no matter the distance between one world to the other, she is here with you. She is the one comforting you now. I know she holds your family tight and it will be her reminders and memories that help you through your "one day at a time".

Dear Diane and family,
I am truly sorry to hear that your precious daughter lost her battle to NB. I often would ask how she was doing and was so happy to here the first time when she was in remission. Then Jill ( my sis in law Jill Luks ) told me the news and I prayed for your daughter. I was so sorry to hear the sad news as I too understand the fight and emotional ups and downs you have been through. I lost my Dad 5 mos ago to AML/Lymphoma.I am sure my Dad was there with open arms and she will be well taken care of. I never had the honor of meeting Emily but heard she was a true angel. It is amazing to me to see how people going thru this horrible illness have the strength and courage they do and seem to help those around them with there infectious smile. Her love and memories will live in your hearts forever and give you the strength to live on for her. May you find peace within you soon.
With lots of love and sympathy. Amy and Jeff Richman & family

The beautiful service for your little Emily, gave SO much peace to others (so much so- that you will never know). We thankyou for the chance to celebrate the incredible life that is EMILY.

I pray that God is providing you with comfort and care as you start through the grieving process. It will be a very long journey and please know that you will proceed through it at your own pace. No one can tell you it takes a year or 10 years. It is an ongoing process. Sweet Emily will always be part of your heart and your lives. She was a beautiful and amazing girl, most worth of remembering forever, as I know you will. Just take things a step at a time, as slowly as you are comfortable. Nothing can ever erase the special memories you shared with Emily.

1 John 1:1-4 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.

Diane,David & MaryGrace,
Just thought I would share this story with you of yet more lives that Emily and your family have touched. Since we cannot attend the celebration of Emily's life, I felt like I had to do SOMETHING. My heart was tugging at me..."do something, tell people, show people". I wanted to give somthing out at work, and mom suggested carnations. So last night I was calling around to every store in SC to find 30 pink carnations. I was just about to give up, and try something else when Lexington Florist answered the phone. She said "yes" she had them. I asked what time they closed, and they said 5:30pm....it was 6:15pm. She had no idea why I wanted them, but she said she would stay there and wait for me to come get them. I rushed over with the picture of the girls from the wedding in my purse. When I got there they let me in, and I started to tell her Emily's story. Thanking her for doing such a nice thing by waiting for me. Before long I had 4 women who were strangers to me a minute before, all in tears. They would not let me pay for the flowers and sent me on my way with sympathies for your family, and promises that if there was anything else they could do, they were there. When I gave them out a work, I attached just the website and a ribbon to each carnation, and left them at everyones desk. They all came to me, Dr's and all, to say how beautiful Emily was, and how their hearts ached to read of your familys pain. So, by my count, that is 40 more people who are changed for knowing Emilys story, and who will probably go home and hug their own babies a little tighter tonight. What could be bad about that..... : ) We love you

My heart broke when my son, Alex Lopez, told me that his aftercare friend had passed away. I never met Emily but through your journals, I feel like I have known her! Emily's strength, courage, and her outgoing personality has become an inspiration to both my son and I! My son and I wanted to do something special for your Angel Emily. During Alex's Championship Baseball game this Saturday, we decided for all Players to wear Pink Ribbons on their baseball shoes to Celebrate Emily's Life! Both Team Coaches and the Baseball Commissioner gave the approval! I wanted the boys to wear their ribbons on their uniforms but due to the rules and regulations, Players cannot have any type of metal (especially safety pins) on their shirts just in case they get hit with the baseball. The safest place was their shoes. Most of Alex's team knew Emily and were very happy to talk about Emily and how they knew her! Alex has decided to dedicate his championship game to Emily.....his aftercare friend! Our thoughts and prayer will always be with you and your family.....GOD BLESS!!!

I have been at a loss for words, I can only imagine the emptiness that each of you are feeling. I am truly sorry for your loss, but on the other hand I am rejoicing that Emily is not in any more pain.
To MaryGrace--I cannot imagine not having my sister by my side, I know you and Emily have a very special bond, that only twins would know about. However, I think that your love for her and Emily's love for you stretches all the way to heaven and though you cannot see her or touch her, Emily will always be by your side and in your heart. I feel like Emily will make her presence known to you in special ways and She will always be watching out for you.
Love and Prayers

Dear Diane, David, Mary Grace and Ruth,
Ever since I read of Emily receiving her wings, I have tried to find some words.
I started reading your Journal when Cindy first told me about your website. I felt then that I knew each of you.
The incredible courage which you have shown is truly an inspiration to the rest of us.
I've been happy with you during the happy times and saddened by the setbacks. Of course I was so happy that Emily and Mary Grace were the flower girls at Amanda's wedding, and also had the opportunity to go to Disney World.
Please know you are all in our hearts, especially Saturday when you celebrate Emily's life.
Our hearts are with each of you and Emily. You have our hugs, prayers and love,(an extra one for Mary Grace.)

I met Emily last year at the Ronald McDonald House Mother's Day event. I was there with my mom volunteering, and we were amazed at how eloquent, bubbly, and simply adorable little Miss Emily truly was. As I sat with her, stringing beads, I realized that she was an incredibly unique little girl!
Thank you for sharing your daughter with me, even it was for just a few hours on a random Friday.
She will always be in my heart.

Philippians 4:6-8 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

There are truly no words that I or anyone can say to make it better. I just want you to know that you are in my prayers. You have been wonderful keepers of the charge God gave to you when He loaned those beautiful girls to you. Unfortunately He chose to call in His loan of Emily. We just do not understand but He cares for us even when we do not understand. Lots of love from my family to yours and plaease let me know if there is anything I can do for you. God bless you!!

I am sorry I have not written before now. As you know, there truly are no words adequate to the magnitude of the loss of your beautiful Emily. I remember when we first met in the playroom at RMDH so long ago. Talking with you in the playroom at MSK when your fears of Emily's relapse had not been confirmed. I looked at her playing there and truly believed it simply could not be true that the beast could be sneaking in to grab your beautiful and happy daughter. I know that the ache in my heart is nothing compared to the devastation you feel, but it will be a continuous reminder to me to keep fighting nb.
Sending much love,

I was saddened to read the news in the letter sent home from school yesterday. It took my breath away to know that Emily had lost the battle she had fought with vigor every day. David, since working with you while you were at Radio Disney, Andrea Ramos and I (from City of North Miami) have always kept your family in our prayers. Your family is so strong to have endured such pain over the past four+ years. I admire the strength that you have shown through the entire process. Life is so short and we must accept each day as a gift. My daughter, a first grader at Embassy Creek, does not know the girls, but she does know that Emily earned her angel wings. May you find comfort in that you've touched many through your struggle, and that God will give you strength to carry on. May we all learn from your family to enjoy life for each precious memory that we make.

Dear Mr.and Mrs. Adamson, I had a brief moment with Emily several months ago (right before she went for her last treatment) at Embassy Creek. In the 15 minutes we were together she never stopped smiling or talking (keep in mind we had just met). She was wearing a pink hat, socks, pants and her cheeks matched, so I shared with her that althought Emily was defiently a beautiful name, 'Pinky' suited her. We both laughed and your daughter jumped right inside my heart. My tears are heavy with sadness and blessing for you and her siblings. Although it was just 15 minutes, I will never forget Emily 'Pinky' Anderson. May her memories fill your hearts for a lifetime :0)Ivette Clero and Family

Dear Adamson family,
this is my second entry, and i say again i am truly sorry about what had happened. I am so proud of Marygrace, for actually having the strength and courage to get up and go to school. When i saw Marygrace today, i saw a smile on her face that i will never forget. I wish i could have known your whole family better, but i will try to get to know Marygrace. Your journal entries are inspiring and sad, and i can truly relate to them. Right now, just think your little angel, Emily, is looking down at you, happy, and not suffering any longer. I feel your pain, but i can tell that your family is strong and keep moving, being glad to have life. My whole family can feel you, and our thoughts are truly with you. I will continue i on praying for your family, and the other suffering cancer victims. Best wishes, may god be with you.

Even though she has suffered from probably the worst loss in her life, she went to school, and smiled. I am soooooo proud that she can move on! I know she misses emily very much, but she held her head up high. My thoughts are with your family. When I read the last journal entry, I almost cried. I know that you guys will be okay. She has to suffer no more. Right now she is looking down at you, loving everything you guys did for her! My whole family's thought are with you! God bless!!!!!!

I am so sorry for your loss. Emily is dancing in Heaven with many other angels-our included. I fell in love with the poem on your website "A Bereaved Parent's Wish List". It all hits home, even after 2 1/2 years. I wish I could hug you and cry with you. In the meantime, we will pray for you and hold you in our hearts!
I wish I could take away your pain-if I could, I would...
I wish I could bring Emily back, if I could, I'd bring her myself...
I wish I could hug you until the tears stop-that would be forever...
Hang in there and know that there are MANY people thinking of you, praying for you and grieving with you...

I can't imagine how difficult your days must be right now. Maybe it helps a little to know that there are those of us praying for your family. I am a professional singer living in New York City and every Sunday I sing at St. Peter's Luthern Church at 54th and Lexington. Our annual Memorial Concert with chorus and orchestra is being held on Sat. May 17th where we honor those who have passed in the last year. It is a beautiful service and this year Emily's name will be included in those read aloud. Thank you for sharing your lives and please come to St. Peters if you are ever in New York again. I would be honored to meet you.

I will never understand why children have to get Cancer in the first place, and I will never begin to understand the devestation this horrible disease has done to your family.
I have been following your beautiful daughther for some time now and being on the "other side of the fence" looking in I could only imagine what you were going through.
Your daughter was a true fighter and gave this crap a run for it's money, she has been my insperation to not let the small stuff get to me, she is my hero!!!

Dear Adamson Family,
There are no words that could express what I felt when I opened Emily's page and learned she had earned her angel wings. I was devasted all day. Though I have never met you, I felt so close to you, as I too am a mother of a neuroblastoma child. Your family is in our hearts. We wish you strength and faith at this time. May the wonderful memories you shared with us live in your hearts forever. With love

I'm a visitor from Hannah's website. I have been following Emily for a few years now and I have two children very close in age to Emily and Mary Grace and have felt sad when things were rough and felt happy when things were good. I remember reading about your many adventures in NY visting TRU, Central Park and most recently your trip to WDW. I have always been in awe of what you guys did as a family, making sure that the girls were together as much as possible. I know that Mary Grace will always hold the memories of her sister with her forever, because you as parents were so special and determined to keep the bond that close (twin) siblings have. I want you all to know that my prayers and thoughts are with you all, I will say a special prayer for Mary Grace.
God Bless

I'm just so sorry and absolutely heartbroken for your beautiful family. Your brave little girl will be in my heart forever. I am sorry I never had the honor of meeting her, but I thank you for sharing your lives and experience with us. Our paths were sadly parallel much of the time, except that towards the end it was me who was walking it first, rather than the other way. I'm always available to talk if you want. Just email me and I will respond as best as I can. For now, I just offer my deepest sympathy and heartfelt prayers for your family.

You did so much to make Emily's life full and wonderful. You are amazing parent's and I know that MaryGrace will be o.k. because of you. You are the parent I want to be. Nothing we say or do will help your pain but never forget that we will all be together again and it will be forever. Grandma Ruth you are an amazing women and Emily was so blessed to have you and for all that you did for her. May god bless you all and keep you in his loving care. Never forget that you did EVERYTHING perfect for Emily. You did it all and Emily was so blessed to have you as her family and now she will build a home in Heaven and be there to greet you when you get called home. You are an inspiration to all who have the honor of knowing you.
Love Always,

Even though I've never met Emily her warmth and love for life have filled my heart. I pray for you and Mary Grace during this difficult time. Know in your hearts that she is always with you and will guide you through your lives until you can meet with her again. She is at peace and is singing and dancing the night away.

Dear Diane, David, Mary Grace & Grandma -
We are so very sad for your loss of your little girl here on earth. May she save each of you a place in heaven!
I don't know who wrote the poem I'm including below, but I thought it appropriate about your little angel, Emily.
When God calls little children to dwell with Him above,
We mortals sometimes question the wisdom of His love.
For no heartache compares with the death of a small child,
Who does so much to make our world seem wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God tires of calling the aged to his fold,
So He picks a rosebud before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them, and so He takes but few,
To make the land of Heaven more beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult, still somehow we must try.
The saddest word mankind knows will always be “Goodbye.”
So when a little child departs, we who are left behind must realize God loves children – Angels are hard to find.
Twincerely,
The Blum Family (Barbara, Seth, Zachary & Kayla)

Even though there is nothing that is "appropriate" to say at this time...Please know that our hearts are broken for your loss, as is it truly a loss for so many of us as well. We have all been touched by Emily and your family. We have all learned to be stronger, made a little wiser, and reminded to love a little bigger. All because of your little girl. We are so honored to have had the girls in our wedding. It was wonderful to see them have such a good time, and for us to have had that time with Emily was priceless. Thank you for that. We love you, we wish we could be closer, but if there is anything we can do, we are here. ALL our love and prayers.

EMILY LIVED A FULL, FULL LIFE BECAUSE OF YOUR LOVE FOR HER, YOU WOULD HAVE NO LESS. EMILY LIVED AND WAS TAKEN CARE OF AS THE TRUE PRINCESS SHE WAS. EMILY'S YEARS ON EARTH WERE TOO SHORT, HOWEVER YOUR FAMILY CRAMMED EVERTHING IN FOR HER AND MARY GRACE'S MEMORIES. I HAVE SAID THIS BEFORE, BUT I WILL TELL YOU THAT I LOVE YOUR BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER AND SHE WILL ALWAYS HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART, SHE WELCOMED ME BACK TO WORK, AND SHE WAS THE FIRST STUDENT I MET. FINALLY,WE ALL KNOW EMILY HAD GREAT PARENTS ON EARTH LOVING HER, TAKING CARE OF HER, SEEING TO HER EVERY NEED. YOU TAUGHT HER LOVE,AND EMILY SHARED THAT LOVE EVERYWHERE SHE WENT, NOW EMILY, HAS THE BEST PARENT, OUR HEAVENLY FATHER. DIANE AND DAVID I KNOW GOD WILL SEND YOU A SIGN TO LET YOU KNOW THAT YOUR BABY GIRL IS PEACEFUL, PAIN-FREE AND HAPPY. I LOVE YOU ALL AND KNOW THAT GOD HAS YOU IN HIS ARMS SHIELDING AND PROTECTING YOU AS ONLY HE CAN.

Remember that God's mercies are great and new each morning and He will give you all you will need to press on through your grief. May it comfort you to know that you are loved by so many people, many of whom have never even had the opportunity to meet you in person. Time is a healer and while you never get over the loss, the pain eases and the rush of beautiful memories fill your hearts and minds for the remainder of your lives. Praying for peace, strength and hope in the days to come for Emily's parents, twin sister and grandma. The Gariboldi family.

Dear MaryGrace, Diane and David and Family,
I am just so sorry. I will always remember our Miss Emily, from the very first day she entered my classroom with her clinging to MaryGrace. The various special occasions, with one in particular, where all her friends from Rock Creek Academy played in snow on Emily's and MaryGrace's front yard! Emily touched so many and will never be forgotten!
It was a true honor to be Emily's first teacher.
I am planting Kaleidoscope Hydrangea flowers in my rock garden as a memorial to Emily.
God Bless You and Keep you in His care.
Ms. Jeanne
God's Message... Come to My Heavenly garden, And see in perfect bloom, The flower you loved so dearly, And thought I plucked to soon. Then you will know My reason, Though you know not today, Why in Emily's promising childhood, I took your sister and daughter away. She is safe and happy in My arms.

To Emily's family:
I am so sorry for your loss, and although I know no words can really make a difference right now, I hope you can at least take a small comfort in knowing how many people she affected in her short life. I have never written before but I have been following Emily's story for several months-- I'm 17 and lost a best friend to leukemia 3 years ago, and I'm still trying to understand why these things happen. I am praying for strength and peace for all of you. Emily will always be a huge and important part of your lives, and she will ALWAYS be with you. I especially pray for Mary Grace as she will be experiencing so many important things without her sister physically by her side. I am sorry I never got to meet Emily, but she seems like an amazing girl and I can tell from your entries that she was so, SO lucky to have such an AMAZING family!
Sincerely,
Meg

hey. dear family, we are very sad about this tragic event. But we did hear that she got to go to Disney, and have a lot of fun before she passed. We are glad that she doesn't have to suffer anymore, and you are right, she is dancing with angels. We knew her from Embassy Creek, but we really didn't know her very well. But we did know that she was a kind, sweet girl. WE are in the fifth grade, but we will definitely try to help Marygrace with her feelings. We know that she missed out on the Jr. Chorus show, and we feel very bad. Best Wishes to all of your family.

Dear Diane, David and MaryGrace,
My most sincere condolences on the passing of your beautiful warrior, Miss Emily. I have been following her story (from the link on my grandson's NB page - www.deqlanhiggins.blogspot.co.za) and have always noticed her beautiful eyes and wide smile. The official representative of our Cancer Foundation here in South Africa made a profound statement last week when she wrote:"We have all been given exactly the same amount of time to live..... its just the time on earth that is different for each one of us". Emily completed the mission on earth with which our gracious Lord presented her and now she has joined Him in His glorious kingdom, pain-free and alive for all eternity. May God give you all the strength, endurance, courage, trust and faith to accept His will for her and know for certain, that He will shower you all with abundant blessings and heal you in the terms of our "being human". MaryGrace, I will especially lift you up in prayer so that you are filled with a wisdom and understanding that gives you peace so that you may remember your treasured sister in the most beautiful ways possible and that you can truly honour her. God bless Dave and Diane at this traumatic time, and may He soon allow your cup to once again "runneth over" with great joy and continue to spread His word.
With loving thoughts,
Bev Bourne

You are an inspiration to us all as parents, and yes, you did all you could. No doubt in my mind about that. I can't even begin to try to attach words to this feeling of loss and sadness. May strength be with you in this time of mourning. My thougts are with you and with Mary Grace (I am the mother of twins and can certainly understand the bond that exists between twin siblings). May God watch over you and your family in this difficult time, as we know he's watching over his little angel Emily. Prayers and hugs.

Dear Diane, Dave and Mary Grace and Family,
My deepest sympathy and my prayers are with you all.
May God guide you all through this huge lost. Emily’s physical body might have left us, but her brave heart, her strength, her beautiful spirit, her laughter, her smile will always and forever be remember. Emily will always be there for Mary Grace she will be her little Angel who will look over her forever. One of the things, I did to help me cope through my lost of my cousin who died from Cancer was her smile. Whenever I felt sad I would remember her smile. That would help me cope day by day when I thought of her smile I smiled. So whenever you are feeling sad try to remember Emily’s smile or her funny thing that made Mary Grace smile. And this memory will be one of the ways that can help you both and Mary Grace cope through the lost of little Emily.
Emily has gone to a better place, and she will never be forgotten from family, friends and friends from the Internet.
God Bless

There's a grief that can't be spoken...and you are experiencing it right now. After following you on this journey through your site, I feel that I know you just a little. I came to you through Sarah Smith's site. It is strange that my first thought when I read of Emily's passing were the words to an old Beatles tune.
"You say yes, I say no.
You say stop and I say go go go, oh no.
You say goodbye and I say hello
Hello hello
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello
Hello hello
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello."
The moment you said "goodbye", Jesus was saying "hello" to your sweet child. She has seen Jesus. He has welcomed her to her eternal home and she will be safe forever. The most we can do as parents is to TRY to keep them safe. Jesus IS ABLE keep them safe. He is also able to get you through this. If you can stand the pull, he'll pull you through.
With my deepest sympathy -

My heart goes out to you and your family at this difficult time. There are no words that can feel comforting at this time. Grieve in your own time and place. Let the emotions come, and they will, at the strangest times and places. Cry, laugh, be angry... It is now the new 'normal'. The hardest is all the firsts, even though we are still experiencing those our selves, they are hard! But I am told that it gets manageable someday...
I got my sons into see a grief counsolor after my son died, and that seemed to help. My 5 yr.old still has hard times, he lost his best friend, and to a 5 yr. old Heaven is around the corner. We also had a wonderful hospice counsolor that helped alot. She still comes by and sees the boys.
My prayers are with you during this difficult time!

I am so sorry for your loss. I have not met you or Emily but feel like I know you since I live in Palm Beach County and receive information about Joe D.Hospital. I remember the information about the ball and Emily's picture as the little princess attending the ball. I will keep that memory and hope all your wonderful memories will help you and MaryGrace at this time.
You are in my prayers at this time.

Dear Lord, please wrap Your loving arms around this family and comfort them with Your amazing love. Give them strength to face the days ahead, the courage to stand strong, and the understanding to know that their precious Emily will always remain in their hearts and memories. Almighty God, place a protective hedge around them and keep our enemy (Satan) at bay until they are strong enough to withstand his viscous attacks as they deal with their loss and pain. Lord, I pray you will place godly people in their path that will come along side them to help shore up their faith in You during their hour of need. In the name of Your Precious and Loving Son, our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Praying God’s blessings on you to and always.

I'm absolutely devestated and sickened to hear of dear Emily's passing. While I'm glad that she's out of pain, I'm just so upset for her physical presence having to leave this earth. I'm thankful that she passed away peacefully (something we should not even have to be thankful for in a child's life, ugh).
I'm praying so hard for your wonderful family - give MaryGrace a hug for me, and if there is anything I can do for you, please let me know. Love Anna

Dear David and Diane,
Words cannot express our deep regret and sorrow for your family. Emily was an angel on this earth and she will now continue her journey that we do not understand as of yet. My heart feels a weight of sorrow that is unexplainable. Although we never met your sweet Emily we always prayed that she would be able to defeat this terrible disease. As parents of a child with this disease, we always live in fear that is not mentioned but deeply felt and every time a precious angel is taken, we feel a devastation. Please know that we are so very sorry for your terrible loss. Please know that we will pray for your family, your strength, your peace. Please know that we wish Emily can now rest in peace and that her presence in this life will not be forgotten. We are truly and deeply sorry. May God comfort her in his precious arms.

I didn't have the words to say yesterday on Mother's Day and today, the words are still hard to find. As a mother, a mother of twins in fact, my heart cannot fathom what your family has endured, but the one word that comes to mind when I think of, ache for, and pray for your family is "INSPIRATION". Your entire family and all that you have endured has inspired, encouraged, and challenged more people than you and I can even imagine. The strength I have sensed from the very beginning of your ordeal is beyond amazing and can teach us all so very much! For that God is well pleased with you, his faithful children. As painful as this is for you, I admire you for your unbelievable example of strength and faithfulness. You are AWESOME parents and I know God applauds you for all you have done for your precious daughters. My prayers and the prayers of my family continue for His divine intervention each moment of each remaining day. God's grace to you dear people and may EVERY need be met by our heavenly physician.

Dear Diane,
Though it may not have been under the ideal circumstances, we do hope that your Mother's Day was filled with the knowledge that you're giving your daughter what she needs: your love.
You are truly an inspiration to moms everywhere! Thank you for reminding us that it's people not stuff that we should value. Your sacrifices now will reap a reward later. God is pleased with how you take care of the life He's given you to love and care for. Please know that on Mother's Day you reminded us that motherhood is to be highly valued and is God honoring.
It was great to see Mary Grace yesterday! She did so well in the Mother's Day program. To see her smiling...well, it made our day!
We continue to pray for you and yours.
In His grip,

Continued prayer for Emily to be pain-free, that MaryGrace knows what a great sister she is and Emily's crankiness is from the pain, not from Emily herself. Praying for David and Diane to have the strength to carry on and continue being the caring parents they are. And strength for Grandma Ruth.
Please know that the Ladies at Pines Baptist lift you up daily, also during Bible Study and Sunday morning prayer before church.
May you feel God ever near through this season.

Mine are clenched all the way from Washington, and I have never met Emily! May God give all of you a peaceful night tonight -- and I am praying for Emily to be pain free. Please, God, intercede here. Bless your child Emily with freedom from pain and her parents with strength for this ordeal.

MaryGrace,
You are such a wonderful sister!! I know you help out alot and you try so hard to help Emily.. That's what sister's do. Emily loves you very much and I know you love her--I know this is really hard, but Emily does appreciate how much you do for her. I know that if I were sick like Emily, I would definitly want my sister there even if I was cranky. Emily does not mean to yell and snap at you, she just can't help it right now. I will be praying for you (and your whole family). Just hang in there Sweetheart, you are doing a great job.
Happy Mother's Day, Diane!! I hope today brings a special blessing just for you...
Family,
I am still praying. I pray for strength and comfort. You all are on my mind constantly... I hate that Emily has to be so drugged up all the time. I agree with you, that that was not quite what you had in mind. I hope you can come up with a combination that will ease her pain and let your family enjoy some special days and special memories.
Lots of Love and Prayers!
God Bless you...

My heart breaks as I read the journal. It floods my memory of all the things that happened with James, too.
You have to do what is right for your family, and I truly believe you are doing that.
Emily knows that she is a very loved and beautiul little girl, and MaryGrace also knows that she is adored by her twin sister... I am just so sorry...
I received an email today, and in the few precious words that were written, there was one sentence that stood out...
and if the Lord's will is to give Emily her healing in Heaven, than these words also apply to your family:
You have been able to HOLD an angel!
My thoughts and prayers continue to be with your family... and to Diane, may God's Love surround you on this Mother's Day!

I'm so glad that you are home, although it breaks my heart to read your latest entry. I can't imagine what you are going through, although I also can't imagine better, more loving, concerned parents. These are the days when you look up and say "Dear God, just how big are my shoulders?" because at times it must seem like an overwhelming lot you've been given. I'm sure Emily's harshness with Mary Grace is all part of this horrible process, but that doesn't make it any easier for her. In time she will understand. Many of us are praying for peace in your hearts, peace in your home, and peace in your family.

Dear David and Diane,
I read about Emily from Hannah Pasquinelli's journal. Your journal entry filled me with emotions for you as a mom that I have never felt before. I don't even have any words for them. I have a 7 and 2 year old daughter. I can't pretend to know what you are going through, all I know is that I want to tell you what's in my heart. I think that Emily has the best parents on the face of this earth. I can't imagine that she could get any more love from two people than she is getting from you and always has gotten from you. You are the first people she saw when she came into this world and she has been showered with love ever since. I think of all the children, sick or not, who don't have parents that love them and I have to push it from my mind. That is the biggest travesty imaginable to me. The Lord has known Emily's days as He has all of our days counted. I think in precious Emily's case, when she goes to be wrapped in her Heavenly Father's arms that she will be wrapped in yours, feeling safe and secure. God knew to give her to you because she doesn't deserve any less. I'm praying for you, for your whole family, that you will feel the Lord's peace that surpasses all understanding. Your sister in Christ, Barbara

Dearest David and Diane,
In no way have you failed your dear sweet Emily! God gave her to you because He knew you would be the best mommy and daddy, Emily and Mary Grace could ever have.
No words I or anyone else can say will release you of the helplessness you are feeling...a helplessness that is felt to your very bones...an ache that will linger forever.
Emily has been given such a beautiful smile...God's little gift to you, an everlasting love note...Emily's smile imprinted on your very souls.
I pray continually for you, I cry out to God on your behalf...I admit, I myself question God...Why? I pray that your helplessness will grow into an unexplainable strength for Mary Grace.
As your pain grows deeper with every breath...your tears flow and as your chest pounds every beat louder and harder...May you both fall into the arms of Jesus and feel His embrace...Know that He will hold you even as He holds your dear sweet Emily.
You are on mind and in my prayers,
Yevette

I found your site from Hannah Pasquinelli's site. Please know how touched I was to read your story. It is so filled with an abundance of love and caring for your precious daughter. Emily is a beautiful child and you have been wonderful parents. It is sometimes hard to remember that our children are really God's children and are only loaned to us to love and nourish until God calls them back home. You have done a magnificent job of caring for Emily and providing all that she needs to feed her mind, body and soul. God has truly blessed you to be chosen as parents for HIS special child. Emily is here to do God's work on earth and she has done a wonderful job of showing us God's love. Many prayers have been sent up to God in Emily's name.
You will be in my thoughts and prayers as you face the difficult days ahead. Your Faith in God shines through every word you write in Emily's journal. May God grant you the strength of body and peace of mind, knowing you have done just as God wanted you to do. You are very special parents.

I saw your CB address on Caryn Franca's website and clicked on it to read your entry. As soon as I saw the photo of Emily laying on her bed with her legs crossed behind her I fell in love! That shiny copper hair and that engaging smile! She reminded me of Audrey Hepburn....all girl! I have a girl who is now 27 years old. Often I have wondered if I have done enough of the right things for her. Sadly, you have had more to do for Emily than the rest of us. I am sure you have done everything humanly possible and more to keep Emily alive and well. Your entry is beautifully written, so heartfelt and honest. Incredibly sad...and yet those photos also tell a story. Emily is smiling in every one of them. You gave her all you could and more; I am sure because I have watched Caryn with Nick and know that somehow you find the strength to give your children exactly what they need from you. You are in my prayers.

We are praying constantly for Emily. She never leaves my mind. We pray for you mom/dad, that God gives your stength during this time. Little Emily has touched many lives around the US. I seen this on another site and thought you might like to see it...It reminds me of Emily:
The Brave Little Soul
By: John Alessi
Not too long ago in Heaven there was a little soul who took wonder in observing the world. She especially enjoyed the love she saw there and often expressed this joy with God. One day however the little soul was sad, for on this day she saw suffering in the world. She approached God and sadly asked, “Why do bad things happen; why is there suffering in the world?”
God paused for a moment and replied, "Little soul, do not be sad, for the suffering you see, unlocks the love in people’s hearts.” The little soul was confused. “What do you mean,” he asked.” God replied, “Have you not noticed the goodness and love that is the offspring of that suffering? Look at how people come together, drop their differences and show their love and compassion for those who suffer. All their other motivations disappear and they become motivated by love alone.”
The little soul began to understand and listened attentively as God continued, “The suffering soul unlocks the love in people’s hearts much like the sun and the rain unlock the flower within the seed. I created everyone with endless love in their heart, but unfortunately most people keep it locked up and hardly share it with anyone. They are afraid to let their love shine freely, because they are afraid of being hurt. But a suffering soul unlocks that love. I tell you this - it is the greatest miracle of all. Many souls have bravely chosen to go into the world and suffer - to unlock this love – to create this miracle - for the good of all humanity."
Just then the little soul got a wonderful idea and could hardly contain herself. With her wings fluttering, bouncing up and down, the little soul excitedly replied, "I am brave; let me go! I would like to go into the world and suffer so that I can unlock the goodness and love in people’s hearts! I want to create that miracle!"
God smiled and said, "You are a brave soul I know, and thus I will grant your request. But even though you are very brave you will not be able to do this alone. I have known since the beginning of time that you would ask for this and so I have carefully selected many souls to care for you on your journey. Those souls will help you create your miracle; however they will also share in your suffering. Two of these souls are most special and will care for you, help you and suffer along with you, far beyond the others. They have already chosen a name for you.”
God and the brave little soul shared a smile, and then embraced. In parting, God said, “Do not forget little soul that I will be with you always. Although you have agreed to bear the pain, you will do so through my strength. And if the time should come when you feel that you have suffered enough, just say the word, think the thought, and you will be healed.”

Trust me when I say that you have not failed Emily in any way. Though you may not think so, you have loved her and taken care of her above and beyond what a parent should have to do. But we all do what we need to do where our children are concerned. As long as she knows you love her, that is the most important gift a child can receive and that will give you comfort in the future. I know how tough it is, I have been exactly where you are now. Jesus told us that with faith, we can move mountains. I will continue to pray for that mountain to move.

God and the brave little soul shared a smile, and then embraced. In parting, God said, "Do not forget little soul that I will be with you always. Although you have agreed to bear the pain, you will do so through my strength. And if the time should come when you feel that you have suffered enough, just say the word, think the thought, and you will be healed."
Thus at that moment the brave little soul was born into the world, and through her suffering and God's strength, she unlocked the goodness and love in people's hearts. For so many people dropped their differences and came together to show their love. Priorities became properly aligned. People gave from their hearts. Those that were always too busy, found time. Many began new spiritual journeys - some regained lost faith - many came back to God. Parents hugged their children tighter. Friends and family grew closer. Old friends got together and new friendships were made. Distant family reunited, and every family spent more time together. Everyone prayed. Peace and love reigned. Lives changed forever. It was good. The world was a better place. The miracle had happened. God was pleased....
Here is praying and hoping you find peace and comfort tonight.

I have come to Emily's site from Nick Franca's. I am so sorry for the devastating news you received today. I wish I had some magic words to make you feel better, but I know that is not possible. You have been forced into the worst situation any parent could ever imagine. I will be praying for comfort for your precious Emily and for strength for you, her parents, as you face each day ahead.

The love and prayers of people around the world who follow your beautiful daughter Emily's journey will unite to give you comfort during your time of need. My hope is that you feel it each and every day. Having lost our 9 year old daughter, Alexandria, to this dreaded disease called cancer, I unfortunately understand the depths of your pain and sorrow.

Dear Adamson Family,
My heart and prayers go out to you. You are wonderful parents and very strong people. You have done everything you could posssibly do and have been so strong for Emily every inch of the way.I don't know how you do it. I have three children of my own and have been through many situations through the years, But none that could be as devastating as this. Knowing Emily for even this short time has touched my heart and my soul. What a special child with a smile and a personality that warms your heart. I had enjoyed working with her so much and she was so eager to learn. I wish I could take away her pain and and take you all out of this nightmare.Send her my love and tell her I think of her often especially at the times I'm suppose to be working with her.

Our hearts are crying for you, as we are sure our Savior's heart is also. The only possible light at the end of this dark tunnel is the joy of reunion that Heaven will bring. We are praying for all of you -- Mary Grace, Emily, Grandma Ruth, David and Diane -- that the Lord will bring you His comfort, love and mercy day by day and moment by moment. Be sure to read II Cor. 1:4-6 and know that you are in the unique position to help others who are also going through this disease. God bless you and put His arms of love around you. We love you all and continue to pray.

Your sweet child Emily, she and her family suffers today.
In her stead, Lord, I beg and beseech Thee...
On her behalf I now humbly pray.
In Your tender compassion and mercy.
Send Angels to stand guard around her and her loving family,
Let Your Spirit of Love gently surround them,
That Your Presence may comfort them with no fear.

I have learned so much about this beast of a disease in such a short time. I will not give up my efforts of helping to raise awareness and funds for finding a cure for NB. I pray for God to rain down upon you HIS grace and mercy. I pray that Emily will be completely comfortable and at peace. I lift you and your family up to HIM.

Hi My Sweet Little Emily, MaryGrace, Diane and David,
I hope you are enjoying being home and are able to follow your catepillars as they grow into beautiful butterflies. You are each in my daily prayers. I pray for comfort for Emily and for God to keep you in his loving arms. I love you all so much and wish I could do something to make these times easier. I read "Grand Pa John's" entry and I agree someone must make a "magic bullet" to knock this disease (MONSTER) out. No one especially a child or a parent should ever have to endure what Emily and you have.
Love Always, Kathy

To Everyone in the Adamson Family:
When reading the updated journal today I am filled with an outrageous quantity of sadness. I can scarcely imagine what you are going through or what you must be feeling right now. I know you’re encompassed by one of the most painful struggles of your life and I pray this note reaches through the rawness and touches your heart to the point of your most piercing pain.
I read something today that I feel describes your love and devotion:
Your bond of love is stronger than the cancer
Your bond of love is more resilient than the cancer
Your bond of love will always outlast the cancer
Your bond of love will continue beyond this earthly life.
I am with you as we trust God with these awful times. God’s grace, His love, and especially His hope are never ordinary. They are extraordinary – like the two of you. Emily has been blessed in one way for sure, having been given two of the most devoted, loving parents on the planet. Remember, too, I will always be there for you in any way possible.
Love, Terri

It's just so hard to know what to pray for - comfort for Emily's parents, when you know nothing can comfort a parent facing what you are facing. For Emily to be painfree and peaceful, when you know that won't happen until she is Jesus' loving arms. When my husband, my best friend of 39 years died last year, I was angry that God's plan wasn't my plan. The anger only now after 15 months is just starting to ease and I am again able to celebrate those wonderful times we shared, rather than mourn the times we won't. I pray that God in his infinite wisdom gives each of you what you need at the exact moment you need it - comfort, love, peace,and even joy knowing that this hard fought journey is being completed with a victory - not the one that you fought for but the victory of life over death. May God bless each of you and all of those of us who have come to love this beautiful little girl and who will mourn our loss, but must rejoice in her gain.

Dear Dave and Diane: we've not met, but in the course of following two adorable boys with neuroblastoma, I have begun praying for so many other wonderful children, including Emily. Nothing I could say could possibly shield you from the grief and pain of these days, but I am praying hard that God will give you a peaceful conviction, so overwhelmingly deserved, that you have done all that loving, committed parents could possibly have done. Neuroblastoma takes lives not because families do not do everything possible, but because it is such a horrible, deadly disease that it cannot always be beaten. May God keep Emily pain free and comfortable so that she is able to enjoy the family that loves her so much, and send each of you strength, courage, and grace for the upcoming days.

I do not know any of you,I have stumbled across your website and in doing that was just brought back to my feelings nearly four years ago in August. I remember holding my daughter in bed next to me and signed those horrible papers for hospice and thinking the most unbelievable thoughts. My husband had to leave the room. These horrible things happening agian to someone just as precious as my girl just fuels me to do something....I am so tierd of Neuroblastoma taking our sweet children. I am sure you all have read the same stories I have and now find yourselves in the midst of one. I cannot give you warm fuzzies about what you are about to face, but I can tell you our children deserve peace....they deserve freedom of this disease.....they deserve more then we can give them here, and what better place to get it then heaven. This was one thought that made it a little more justified.

Those feelings you feel are so true and so raw... IT is the second HARDEST thing that you will EVER have to do... The first is HAVING to watch your child deteriate... That for me was the HARDEST thing to ever have had to do! And I still question IF I had done all the right things... Kody is now painfree from the beast Neuroblastoma and he is happy, with a 'normal' life. I will see him again someday... TRY not to beat yourself up. You have always had Emily's best interest at heart.
I wish I could say something that would make you feel better but NO words can...
I pray that you will all have peace and that Emily will go quickly and pain free...

Dear Emily,
I know you don’t know me, but my name is John Raschke. I am also known as Grandpa John, or just Gj by all of my Little Buddies. Who are my Little Buddies ? Well, my Little Buddies are all of the children suffering from Neuroblastoma, and their families too. So if you don’t mind, I be honored if I could call you my Little Buddy too. – Thanks…
After reading your journal I just have to tell you how courageous I think you and your family are. You see, I wish I had the magic bullet that would just Kick Neuroblastoma's butt and that the doctors would find a cure. Well I am sad to say that I don’t have that type of magic, and it just hurts my heart really bad to see you or any of my little buddies suffer so. It hurt so much, that I just had to do something. And that something is that I decided to raise funds for neurobalstoma research and donate it to the Band of Parents who is partnering with the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, where the wonderful doctors are working very hard to find a cure. And while I raise donations, I also decided that I would run ultra marathons and other types of running races to honor my all of my little buddies. You can read about it here: http://www.runningforthecure@blogspot.com/
So, this is my promise to you and your family: I will continue to run and raise donations for the cause until my legs get too old or tired to run, then I’ll just have to let my heavenly Father carry me onward in my racing till the cure is found…Yep! That’s my promise to you and I’ll keep it.
God Bless You and Your Family
Grandpa John.

I'm so sorry, I'm just so sorry - - I know how difficult this time is going to be but as long as you keep Emily's needs first you'll be doing the very best thing in the world for her. Still praying for Emily and all of you - just now with a bit more of a heavier heart.

Diane and David,
It is so amazing for me to read Emily's guest book. After almost 4 years to see the entries from all over the world from people touched not only by Emily but also by the two of you. I know I see you or speak with you often and I know the love you have for Emily and MaryGrace but it is really remarkable how so many others can see that love through your writings in her site. My heart is so heavy. May you feel comfort and strength of God embracing you as you bring Emily home.

Oh Diane and David, my heart feels so sad for you and your loved ones! I looked up the meaning of the name "Emily" and it means to rival, or to be a contender. Well, Miss Emily surely has been that and more. She went up against the beast, and while she may not win her fight, she has won in so many ways. She is such a winner in the way that she has taught each of us to live each day to the fullest. To smile when we are hurting. To be strong in the face of adversity. Oh yes, she and you and David are indeed winners and none of us who have come into contact with Miss Emily will ever forget all that she and you have taught us.

I have only recently clicked over to Emily's site from Sarah Smith's site, but that beautiful smile in the pictures captured my attention. I spent two hours one afternoon reading all of the previous journal entries to learn Emily's story, and I am so terribly sorry for the ordeal that you all are enduring now.
You're in my thoughts, and I hope with all my heart that Emily will remain pain free, and that you will have the strength you need to make it through this dark journey.

Dear David and Diane, I am just so sorry to read your latest journal entry and really feel the pain and hopelessness that you must feel. In your hearts you must know that at every step you did what you thought was best for Emily. With such an amazing spirit and smile as hers, how could one not doubt that she might escape this monster? The lessons she has taught you are many and your sharing of this journey speaks for the wonderful family you all are. I'm sure Emily's essence is the product of her family's love and support. May God bless you and hold you in the palm of his hand. Every hour is precious. Savor each one.

My heart broke as I read the latest entry. I have been following Emily for some time now and let me just say she is an inspiration as are so many other children with cancer. You are wonderful parents and have done everything in your power to do what you thought was best for her. And as hard as it is to keep in mind - Emily was simply a loan, a gift from God, and angel here on earth sent from heaven. Think of it as an honor that God chose the two of you to love and care for his little angel. We always seem to think that its the parents or those who are older that are wiser, our teachers. But I am sure you can agree that Emily has taught you things you would have never understood without her. Children who have cancer teach us to live, laugh and love. They bring us back to reality making us know what is truly important in life. They are such little fighters and how they do it all with a smile is so extremely inspiring that they touch the hearts of millions and not just momentary but forever. And above all else they teach us to "live like you are dying." If we could all see the world through the eyes of a child with cancer it would without a doubt be a better place. And no matter what the days ahead hold the love you share and the joy that builds up in your chest as you look at her smiling face and know in your heart you could never be more proud of such a little girl or admire anyone more. Those things will last forever and ever. All my love thoughts and prayers.

Dearest David and Diane - It is with a heavy heart that I write this today. I have just read your latest entry this morning and all of the stories I have read regarding the little ones with neuroblastoma are the same - just the faces are different. It just brings you to your knees.....Diane - you have done everything in your power to be an advocate for Emily and you will continue to do so until she reveives her "Angel Wings". I just hope and pray that you get the chance to bring her home and that she can remain "painfree" with the help of hospice. This disease sickens me as I see time after time how it takes it's hold on the children........that is why some refer to it as the "beast" which it truly is. As I try to put words in this entry to you and your family - I am just so very sad that another life will be taken away. As I have read the many, many entries before mine you know that there are sooooooo many of us out here from all over this country who are with you and sending you our prayers in the days, weeks and months ahead..... We also pray for Emily's sister - the siblings are so very vunerable and please give her a big hug from Carol in Randolph, NJ......MAY GOD BLESS EMILY........

David and Diane,
My heart is breaking with you. I read the latest journal entry this morning (after staying up all night to start at the beginning), I think Emily is so very lucky to have such wonderful parents. I believe, that both of you have battled this monster with courage and unbelievable strength. I think in this situation, everything you have done for your daughter, to help her fight this horrible disease, has not been in vain. I know you both are tired, but you have given Emily the best chance and you have given her an amazing life! I'm sending my love and prayers. I pray for the Lord to give you all extra strength and peace. I pray for Emily to have NO pain and extra smiles and lots of laughter. May God Bless you and your family!

God's peace and blessings to you all. Your grace in handling Emily's illness is a testament of your love for your daughter. The decisions you've made have contributed to a life full of love and happy memories for Emily as well as Marygrace and yourselves. These will always shine in comparison to the beast - you've made a life despite it. With the help of God's grace and your love for Emily, you have made the hospice decision. May your desire to ease Emily's pain continue to guide you in the difficult days ahead.

How we so wish there were words strong enough to give you strength, hopeful enough to give you hope, peaceful enough to give you peace . . . but there are no words. Through many tears, we write to tell you that we are all with you and standing by you whether near or far. We are all so very helpless to this disease, but we are not helpless to be there for one another with arms stretched out to you in strength, hope, peace, and friendship. Please know how heartbroken we are and how we wish there was something we could do. All we can offer you in the knowledge that you have done everything and, most importantly, given your beautiful girls the comfort of having two amazing parents who love them more than words could ever say. Feel our arms wrapped around you and feel God hold you all in the palm of His hand.
With many tears, many prayers, and many hopes for Emily, MaryGrace, and their dedicated parents,

I have been following Emily and her story for some time now (learned about her through another link on Will Lacey's web page). I have been so much in awe of your strength as parents to put on a smile, live life to the 100% fullest with Emily rather than retreat and mourn...you have wasted not one minute with your precious little lady. I admire that so much...if in your shoes I could only pray that I would be able to do the same. As a mom, I grieve for you and for what you are going through. I have no words that can help to ease your pain. I can only say that I am sure that there are thousands of people out there who have silently been following Emily's story, praying for you and praying for her....you are never alone.

My heart broke as I read your message.. I have no words that will comfort you.. I will pray for all of you. As a parent I cannot imagine hearing those words and how I would feel as I heard them.
I have two good friends with children who have had neuroblastoma (the 'rare' childhood cancer) and I have watched this disease take over their lives. There is nothing fair about any of this.
You are wonderful parents, with wonderful children. Your love and devotion has come through in each and every post you have made in this journal. I am so sorry that you had to hear those words yesterday and make those plans. But you will walk this road with Emily and will continue to parent her in the wonderful way you always have. With love and devotion. Please know that there are many people you will never meet who hold you in their thoughts and prayers each and every day.

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither
are your ways my ways," declares the LORD. "As
the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my
ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than
your thoughts. As the rain and the snow come
down from heaven, and do not return to it without
watering the earth and making it bud and
flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower
and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes
out from my mouth: It will not return to me
empty but will accomplish what I desire and
achieve the purpose for which I have sent it.
You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and hills will burst into song
before you, and all the trees of the field will
clap their hands. Instead of the thornbush will
grow the pine tree, and instead of briers the
myrtle will grow. This will be for the LORD'S
renown, for an everlasting sign, which will not
be destroyed." (Isaiah 55: 8-13)
Dear Diane and David,
In this moment of sadness and sorrow over your latest entry, I think of the aforementioned "ways", "achievement of purpose", and promise of future "joy" and "peace". I also think of the everlasting love and hope that now and forever rests with you, Mary Grace, and your precious Emily. I praise God for each of you, your dignity, strength, and faith in battle. Neuroblastoma may have taken its toll, but it will never defeat the greater Love and Hope that lies in each of you in Christ. May you, in sharing His suffering as few others ever will, know and stand firm in His saving grace and love--one moment at a time.
Continuing to hold each of you and yours close in thought and prayer,
Leonora

Diane - this sounds exactly like what Katie went through a few weeks ago. Her screams were unbelievable - the pain was agonizing, and it was constipation. I know Lactulose worked for Emily before, hopefully it will work again. We tried everything, and after four days, Katie finally went a little bit. Have they done a simple x-ray? That showed how constipated she was - but I still insisted on a CT on day 4. Hang in there - pain is horrible - we dealt with it all week.

I highly recommend everyone to take IP-6 and Probiotics 15-30. IP-6 cleanses free
radicals from your entire body including mercury, lead, and cadmium as well as loose
iron, copper and calcium. What has this done for me: loosened up my spine/neck, gotten
rid of cyst on my finger, made me thinner (clothes all too big), is removing pain from
the foot I broke in 2003.IP-6 will also take care of kidney stones, gallstones. The list
goes on and on you MUST read the information on it, I can't believe the difference it has
made in my body!

Congratulations to Miss Emily on her recognition. Awards for athleticism and scholarship receive much of the limelight, so it is gratifying to see that Emily's school community appreciates her character. And a wonderfully proud picture you've displayed!

Romans 8:26-28 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Em,
I am a newbie to your website. I just looked at your pix with hair. I would have pinned you as a blonde. You and your sister look just alike. You do "np hair " quite well. I have a weakness for a shiny head. I am so glad you had a wonderful time in Disney. I remember how hard, but wonderful it was for Andrew. You did not stay at Give Kids Andrew was on it with little side effects and lots of good strength. Hopefully it will do the same for you.

This hymn has always been very special to me. Always makes me cry, too.
Praying right now!
"I Know that My Redeemer Lives"
by Samuel Medley, 1738-1799
1. I know that my Redeemer lives;
What comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, He lives, who once was dead;
He lives, my ever-living Head.
2. He lives triumphant from the grave,
He lives eternally to save,
He lives all-glorious in the sky,
He lives exalted there on high.
3. He lives to bless me with His love,
He lives to plead for me above.
He lives my hungry soul to feed,
He lives to help in time of need.
4. He lives to grant me rich supply,
He lives to guide me with His eye,
He lives to comfort me when faint,
He lives to hear my soul's complaint.
5. He lives to silence all my fears,
He lives to wipe away my tears
He lives to calm my troubled heart,
He lives all blessings to impart.
6. He lives, my kind, wise, heavenly Friend,
He lives and loves me to the end;
He lives, and while He lives, I'll sing;
He lives, my Prophet, Priest, and King.
7. He lives and grants me daily breath;
He lives, and I shall conquer death:
He lives my mansion to prepare;
He Iives to bring me safely there.
8. He lives, all glory to His name!
He lives, my Jesus, still the same.
Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives,
"I know that my Redeemer lives!"

Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

When I was thinking about today this hymn came to mind immediately so I wanted to share it. Know that I'm praying!
1. There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Immanuel's veins,
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.
2. The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there have I, as vile as he,
Washed all my sins away.
3. Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved to sin no more.
4. E'er since by faith I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme
And shall be till I die.
5. When this poor lisping, stammering tongue
Lies silent in the grave,
Then in a nobler, sweeter song
I'll sing Thy power to save.

Easter Reflections

With OUR EYES we see
the beauty of Easter
as the earch awakens once more...
With OUR EARS we hear
the birds sing sweetly
to tell us Spring again is here...
With OUR HANDS we pick
the golden daffodils
and the fragrant hyacinths...
But only with OUR HEARTS
can we feel the MIRACLE of GOD'S LOVE
which redeems all men...
And only with OUR SOUL
can we make our 'pilgrimage to God'
and inherit His Easter Gift of ETERNAL LIFE.
I pray for a blessed Easter for your family

Romans 5:6-8 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Dear Emily and Family,
I have thought of you often in these last few years and it was a pleasure to have the opportunity to get to know Emily and MaryGrace during their visits to Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center when I worked there. I have continued to follow your family's story via this website. I don't know if you remember me, but I'm the Child Life Specialist who helped with Emily's first radiation which she did a FANTASTIC job with and also did many hours of medical play with Emily and MaryGrace. Emily has been an expert about being in the hospital and I remember well her many smiles and contagious laughter as she played in the Rec Center, laughed at the clowns or helped with Friday cooking activities. I remember MaryGrace being a loving sister and having a wonderful heart and stregnth. You are a courageous and amazing family throughout the many challenges you have encountered. I am wishing Emily, MaryGrace and both of you the very best as you move forward day by day and enjoy your times together as a family. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, Rebecca Simonitsch

I have just recently found Emily's page after looking at some links on Will Lacey's web page...I have wanted to write but have been at a loss of words as I am a parent and know how much our children mean to us. With that said, I had to write after seeing today's picture. Emily is simply amazing. In the midst of all the pain and trials she has gone through, here is this beautiful little girl sitting on her bed and smiling...as if she has not a care in the world. Talk about grace under pressure! If only we could all face adversity with such bravey and a wonderful spirit. I will pray for you and your family. Clearly, your little lady knows how much she is loved...it is written all over her face.

Emily & Family,
Praying always for a miracle. At church Sunday I saw a video. I believe it was by Rob Bell the video was titled Rain. It talks about a father going for a walk in the forest with his infant son. The baby is in a backpack on the fathers back. They are halfway thru their journey and it begins to rain. He pulls the babys hood over his head, but the baby keeps pulling it off. It begins to rain harder and the baby becomes more anxious and crys harder. So the father stops and takes the baby out of the backpack and pulls him as close to his heart and wraps his arms around him tightly and tells him over and over again I Love You, Your going to be okay. That father was going to get his son out of that storm safely even if it killed him. The father indeed got out of the forest with his son safely. The father said later that that was a memory he would never forget. All he thought about is when we cry out to God, and we think he isn't there with us. Be assured, God has heard your cry and has picked you up and wrapped his arms around you and is running holding you and whispering in your ear, I Love You, I'm not going anywhere. God hears you cries, he is with you today and always holding you in his arms. Close your eyes and feel you fathers arms around you.

I pray for peace for your family, especially Emily. She is my hero. I truly admire your selflessness in letting emily live out the rest of her life surgery and treatment free. It takes so much love to do what you are doing. Im sorry to hear that people have been suggesting things or second guessing your choices. I know in your heart you know you are doing the right thing for Emily, please dont let others make you feel guilty. I will be praying for miracles for your princess and your family.

Praying for your dear family. I am so very sorry so many have to travel this road. One of our 3 yr. twins was dx with NB Dec. 06 and went to live with Jesus Jan. 23,07. Joel had a short battle. Prior to his dx one of his symptoms was fever and then of course pain in legs ect. I would definetly think the fevers were related to the tumors\cancer. We too know your pain, but we were like you praying, asking, pleading the Lord's mercy to his last breath, so do not give up! It has been a very hard journey, but the Lord HAS been faithful. May the Lord give grace and wonderful memories with sweet Emily. Praying for you. www.weloveyoujoel.blogspot.com

Dr. Simoncini has 100% healing of Breast Cancer - no surgery - just an injection - and they are out of there in 4 days. How amazing is that?

Hi Diane and David, I would not pretend to even imagine what you must be going through. I met you through Cindy but haven't seen you since Emily got ill. I was just thinking of you guys and what I would wish for you these coming days.....I would wish for you to feel the soft skin of Emily's little hands until you are sure you'd know it even if you were blindfolded; trace her lips with your fingertips and feel the beauty of them; write "I Love You" messages on her back with you fingers; David, how about if you hold her as you two dance to her favorite song; Diane, I hope you can hold her, chest to chest, under a cozy blanket. May you both kiss every single inch of her, from her head to her toes. I am sure you've already done all of this and more, but I cannot think of a more beautiful day to spend with your baby. May God's peace be with you all. Sincerely, Pam

I think your decisions are very brave, and very wise. Different situation entirely but we did the same for my lovely late husband and I never have for one moment regretted our decision. Quality of life outstrips quantity of life every time. Try and keep your humour - We said Ronnie looked mighty healthy with his liver failure tan - and humour is part of life and dying is part of living...my prayers are with you that you get your little girl home and are able to do some fun things as a family and make lots of memories while you still can.

You seem to always make the best decision with Emily being the main focus and how what you do or do not do will effect her. I admire you for your strength and bravery. Still hoping for the miracle but offering courage, stength and many fun times with your daughter ahead yet to come. God bless and take care.http://www.caringbridge.org/pa/jaredstrayer

More treatments wouldn't be easier for anyone - especially Emily. I must say you are the bravest and most caring parents. Who knows what they would do in your shoes. Enjoy the precious time you have with your daughter and your family. Sending prayers for strength and hugs for comfort.

Good Afternoon, Warrior Princess.
We have snow coming down in hug, fluffy flakes this afternoon. It is a perfect time to visit you and all of my friends on CaringBridge sites. Unfortunately, the ground is too hard or we'd be out making snow angels. It is not comfortable falling backwards on hard snow, believe me. Been there, done that.
Several of our neighbors are over at one of the frozen lakes with their "fishing houses" today. These little "houses" comes in all shapes and sizes. They guys pull them with a trailer hitch attachee behind their cars or trucks and drive right out on the frozen lake. The saw holes in the lake, drop their fishing lines and settle in. Some guys have the holes right in their houses, others have them in "strategic" scientifically places to catch fish. By the way, these little houses don't come equipped with bathrooms, but there are green outhouses in handy locations--just in case you were wondering.
I hope this finds you feeling better and comfortable, sweet one. I think of you often and I pray for you daily. I love you and I believe in YOU.
"You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety." Ps. 4:8
PEACE
By: Unknown
The softness of the presence
Which caresses like a warm breeze
sustains in times of trial
soothes with a gentle hand
Not the ecstasy of joy
neither the desert of absence
But the peace which passes all understanding
You are with me
and I can smile upon this life.

Hi,
My name is Sherrie and I live in Southeast Missouri. I just want you to know that all of you guys will be in prayers. I sympathize with what you're going through. I recently was diagnosed with breast cancer and have had
surgery, but praise the Lord no treatments! God will
get you through this with all the love, support, and prayers lifted up for all of you. Please tell Emily I'm praying for her,even though I don't know her, God does.

Just checking in on sweet Emily and all of you of course!
Know that we are all praying for you, and know that we know you have chosen the best earthly path for sweet Emily. Only God knows what is in store for her future, and I can see in your writings that you accept His will (although I am sure if you had a choice, you would go to the ends of the earth to change it). I will continue to pray you all through, that God offers her peace, strength and comfort whatever comes her way, that He will wrap his loving arms around all that love her to give them strength and comfort to face each day, and most of all give all of you the time you need to love and cherish each other. May all of Emily's days be filled with love and joy and may He touch her with his loving healing hands so she remains comfortable and free from pain! God bless all of you.

You have to put it in God's hands. She must be really special to God for him to call her home so young.

As you have said - there is no treatment that is currently out there that will help and I just hope that you can bring your sweet daughter home where she will be surrounded by her family and loved ones and be kept "pain free". I will be praying for a peaceful journey for Emily until she receives her "Angel Wings". MAY GOD BLESS.........

May God be with you during this time. I do not know you, but found your site through another site. Take comfort in knowing that Jesus will hold your precious child in the palm of his hand and will never leave her side. "The Lord is my shepherd...He leadeth me beside still waters...I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever" Psalm 23. My heart and prayers go out to you all.

I am Sarah Smith's Missionette Leader and know the Smith's well. I want to encourage you, Emily, to hang in there and believe. Sarah's family have had many battles with cancer and God has seen them through to health. I want to "stand in the gap" for you and am praying that our dear Lord will pour out His "healing balm of Gilead" over your head to the cancerous areas. I pray the balm will go right to the source and heal you from within. I know our Father loves you very much and will never leave you. I pray our Father will bless you abundantly with strength, peace, power and healing. May God be with you and your family.

I feel very inadequate to sign this page, but I did at least want to add my name, as someone who is praying for peace for Emily and her family as she pass from your arms into Jesus'
I am just a soon to be single mom, with a 6 year old son. But like pretty much everyone who has signed here, Cancer has had an effect on my life, as it has stolen friends and family members from me. This world can sure be a cruel one for sure. I'm just thankful that we have a God who has overcome the world, and is always in charge. Always.
These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world." John 16:33
Romans 8:37-39, "In all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Jesus understands suffering. Praying right now!
Hebrews 2:9-10 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

Thank you for sharing your story. It moved me so. My twin sisters daughter fought for her life from cancer in her brain stem at the age of 7 too. Like you, she made the same decision to let her baby go without more pain from treatments. Little y year old Tara didn't know her fate until the very end when her mommy told her. Tara replied with her bright eyes "Mommy, I already know...the angels came to visit me and they told me" That was 7 years ago. I have since become a certified reverend to pray with families and volunteer my time. I pray for you, your family and little Emily. I would feel honored to pray with you personally. Just call me.

Diane & Dave,
Words cannot express all the emotions being felt right now. Emily is so special. Having lost my mother to cancer so many years ago, I believe that Emily, as my mother, came into everybody's lives for a purpose. She must have been given a very important mission, because she has touched so many lives. I believe we have all been blessed to have met her and come to know her and have her in our lives. She has a wonderful spirit,and I know that will always remain true. Our prayers are with all of you, and we are here for you.

Hello:
I came to your site, through Grayson Bradshaw's website on Caring Bridge. I cannot even begin to express my sadness and grief that I have for Emily and your family. I am praying that Emily does receive the miracle for which you've asked and pray for God's love and embrace upon all of you. I am so terribly, terribly sorry for the crossroads that you find yourself upon and know that while I've never met your family, I will continue to lift Emily up in prayer as well as you, her parents, because of the difficulty you face now. I would not even pretend to understand what you're dealing with, but you have my committment (as that of my family) to pray for your beautiful daughter multiple times throughout each day. I wish nothing but for you to have strength and feel His love embrace you, now and forever.

Diane:
I am a first time visitor, coming to you from Sarah Smith's site. My heart aches reading your update, knowing that no parent should ever have to write those words or face those decisions. I can tell you are people of faith, and I only wish to remind you to turn to that faith for the answers you seek and the strength you need to continue this journey. The Bible says that God acts on our faith because it is our faith that moves Him. May He be moved by your faith and by the prayers of all of us who lift your entire family up to Him, praying for guidance, for courage and strength, for wisdom, and for Him to be with you every step. We know there is a new mercy every morning with God. We know that by His stripes we have been healed. We praise Him and thank Him because as the great physician, His answers are not the doctors' answers, His laws transcend statistics. Please, please, please keep believing because your miracle isn't in your ability to make the"perfect" decision, it is in your commitment to look UP ... beyond the doctors' facts ... to a much higher truth.

I am so sorry to hear that Em is not doing well. I wish we can make all these go away but realistically you and I know that we can't. If there's anything that I can do to make it easier for all of you, please all you have to do is say the word and if it's humanly possible I will do it. Nobody can ask for better parents as you are. Please know that you are not alone. We have been fighting this disease for so many years and yes there is progress as slow as they may seem but still not enough to make it go away. Em will always be in hearts and praying that she can be as comfortable and pain free as we can make it.
Again I am so sorry. Please let us know if there is anything we can do from a distance.
Always,
Ester

I don't know what to say.. I'm a complete stranger to you, I found your site thru the site of a friend with neuroblastoma, and have followed Emily's journey ever since. I may not know you all, but I cried when I read this post.. you are such a strong and loving family, and you have to make such devastating decisions here. You know what is best for Emily..no one knows her like you do.. she is so lucky to have such loving parents. God bless you as you travel this horrible road.. cancer is so unfair. I will pray for you all each and every day.

Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

We were given that choice - it seems like a long, long time ago but it has only been 4 years. It was a good choice for him - we had some happy days together before he was taken. Thoughts and feelings and promises and a lot of love was shared while he lived....and now they are memories for us to hold onto...forever.
It will take everything you've got in you to have the courage to make your little girl's final days on earth happy, loving, and if possible, carefree. My prayers are with you all. The miracle here, is the time you have left with her.

Though we do not know you or your family, please know that your precious daughter is in our thoughts and prayers. As are you and her father, you are correct, no parent should have to make that decision.
Maybe a second opinion from another doctor?
Maybe just prayers and putting your complete trust and faith in the Lord, he hears our prayers.

I am heartbroken to hear the latest news. I am humbled by your strength and resolve and know in my heart that God will embrace you all with his love and protection. I will be praying for Emily - that she, through the grace of her doctors, remains pain free during the palliative treatments and will always pray for her miracle. I so believe that she is in good hands - both on earth and in a place filled with miracles. May she be graced with the loving touch of healing and strength.
God Bless,

Who can understand any of this. Just keep asking and seeking God. Trust He will lead you to your very next step. Depend on Him fully. My prayers are with you.
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? Matt. 7:7-11

Dear Diane, Girls, and David,
Like others, I'm tremendously saddened and at an utter loss for words. It's days like these when I look at our dogs and find some small amount of comfort: that maybe I'm not unlike them--anxious to understand and please my loving master, not always successful, trapped in a "reality" that only hints at the real deal, correctable and corrected, but forever and ever beloved and "owned" (bought and paid for by the ultimate Master, who sent His own son to suffer and die for you, me, us all so that in accepting Him, we might transcend this fallen world and reconnect with the Creator Master who loves us so). I suppose tonight, though, I feel like a puppy who wants to curl-up with my Master and cry and say, "please Lord, take away the hurt and tell me again why." Suffice to say, you, your doctors, and your many other supporters remain in my thoughts and prayers.
Leonora

Diane, David and your beautiful girls, Cindy read today's entry to me while at work and I was tremondously pained for your family. I remember a couple of years ago during a party at your house I was playing with Emily when she tripped and tumbled to the floor. It was my ignorance that she had a tube in her stomach that could have caused pain if she landed wrong. David was there in an instant to pick Emily up and check that she was OK. It was my ignorance again just a couple of weeks ago when Cindy described Emily's fragile state and this evil monster. And now today. Words are not there to express, but please know that Cindy's and my prayers are with all of you every coming day, and every moment with Emily. God Bless, your friends.

When I moved, I revieved an email, I think when Emily first got sick, Not that long ago. I have been checking in on your family from time to time. And as others, I am feeling compelled to write, as the tears are coming down. Emily has experienced some awesome things, in her 7 years, and I agree, she has THE BEST PARENTS AND SISTER EVER!!

David and Diane,
Emily has the best family. You guys are the most awesome parents. Our thoughts are with you as you begin this new journey. Our family has recently had to go through this conversation with doctors. Our conversation was a little different in that it involved adult cancer and the patient was my father so not exactly the same but still as I read your words I can totally relate. In a world of medical technology it is just doesn't seem right that there is NOTHING else that can be done. How can that be? It is heartbreaking and makes you question even the strongest of faiths. However, the pastor at my father's service told me something that has helped in that we do not get to question WHY. During this time, it does allow you to make the best of memories. I have MANY of the days with my father. I do know that God will carry you through this and hold you up. Remember to give your concerns to HIM. I am praying for your family, miracles can and do happen. A big hug from Texas.

Hi My Sweet Little Emily,
I was so happy to see you yesterday and MaryGrace as her Grandma were leaving the hospital. I still can hardly believe how big and beautiful the balloon they gave you. I don't think I have ever seen a balloon that big. "Call Me" you remember our code, don't you? I hope to speak to you soon! I love you soooooooooooooo much.

They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

"My Heavenly Friend"
Lord, I couldn't live a single day
without You in my heart,
I couldn't face this troubled world,
or have the will to start.
But You, oh Lord, have given me
the courage to endure.
When life gets harder, You are there,
with footsteps, strong and sure.
When life seems cold,
Your breath is warm upon my troubled brow.
I know Your hand is holding mine
and You are with me now.
Yes, life was harder yesterday
before I let You in.
But, now, You live inside my heart...
I'm safe with You, my Friend.
~Jill Lemming~
Focus:
I can't lose sight of God's beauty,
on days which are gray and dreary,
or lose sight of His love,
upon a day that is masked with troubles.

Ephesians 3:14-21 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end.

Am sharing two verses today. The second verse is God's own interpretation of the first verse. When dealing with all the "floods" and vehement winds beating upon us, there is only One Sure Foundation. Praying so as you face these "floods."
Luke 6:48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
1 Corinthians 3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Emily and Mary Grace. You are so lucky. You are children. The Lord Jesus loves children. He said in Matthew 18:3 And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. and 19:14 Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
Thank God that you are children and love Him for it. Do not try to grow up too soon. There is so much about being a child you want to retain all your life. God loves you and so do we. We are praying for you.

Romans 3:21-26 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

These verses were part of my husband's sermon text today. This is a really good passage and speaks a lot to us all as we face a new year. Praying!
Lamentations 3:21-26 This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

As the new year begins everyone's thinking about time and counting it down. So I wanted to share THE section of Scripture dealing with time. Praying as one year ends and a new one begins. Whatever this new year holds, the Lord WILL be with you!
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
