In Support of Emma James Sommers
Hello family and friends.
We come to you today with heavy hearts to share the news about Emma James Sommers, a joyful six-year-old who loves the beach and eating ice cream. Sadly, Emma has been diagnosed with a Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG), a rare and aggressive brain tumor. This tumor is inoperable, and doctors have delivered the unimaginable news to Emma’s parents, saying she has less than a year to live. There is no treatment available to cure this disease. The Sommers family needs all the support we can give during this difficult time.
Let’s come together and support the Sommers family in any way possible. Your contributions and compassion can make a difference and show them that they are not alone in this fight. We humbly ask you to consider taking these actions:
- Choose from Support Page options to provide assistance.
- 'Share' to Spread the Word to family and friends.
- 'Follow' Updates to stay informed.
