God, I miss her so much.

A friend of ours made this for Emerald. Thanks, we love it!


Emerald is the daughter of Myself and Rene, Anya and Ian are the children of Shawn and myself, although Rene has been part of their daily life too!







January 30, 2004, Emerald was diagnosed with a cervical spinal cord tumor. An anaplastic astrocytoma. She had surgery in February 2004, radiation that ended April 15, 2004, and 8 cycles of Temodar (chemotherapy). In November her tumor had significantly increased in size. Emerald had surgery to remove the tumor on January 7th. It was sucessful with 95% of it removed by Dr. Jallo at Johns Hopkins Hospital. She also has an unstable c-spine. She started on VP-16 on February 23, 2005. The tumor was very aggressive and moved into Emerald's brainstem within a few weeks of the surgery. On March 12, 2005, Emerald passed away. She is very much missed by her siblings, parents and all that knew her.

Emerald is 10 years old (3/27/94), in the 5th grade and has 2 siblings Anya (3) & Ian (1). Her favorite things are Bratz and she also collects beanie babies and is trying to collect crystal animals. She is a wonderful student, good friend, and kind-heart, she is my best helper and probably the worlds most wonderful daughter.

Thank you to Sandee for this beautiful graphic.
