The past few days....a journey in pictures

The morning after hearing about our new journey

Exploring the playroom with dad

Happy still in the face of so much uncertainty-she amazes me with her strength

One of her favorite things to do to pass the time-also helped masked the sounds of beeping, paging and other conversations around her

Checking out the four chambers of her heart

Contemplating

Having fun with an Ipad while patiently waiting for anesthesia, bilateral bone marrow biopsy, spinal tap and PICC line placement

Emma's favorite teachers of all time-Mrs. Wenstrom and Mrs. Sardella

Every 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade student at our school made her a card

Laughing and enjoying their artwork for her

One of her favorites :)  -thanks Nate S.

Going for a ride

Her face is still smiling, but it's all taken a toll on her little body
