Emma C.

A Full Trisomy 18 Warrior

Emma is a sassy, fun-loving 11-year-old with an incredible personality who brightens every room she enters. She loves school, being around people, and living life to the fullest with her family by her side — from church and shopping trips to family vacations across the country. Raising awareness is essential because children like Emma can survive and thrive with basic care and support. Emma wouldn't be here today if it had been up to many of the doctors we encountered early on. But she is, and she's the light of our lives, showing the world that children with trisomy deserve every chance to shine.
