Emily was the most outgoing toddler with a smile that could steal the sun.  She made the world go round until she got sick.  She was diagnosed with neuroblastoma when she was 19 months.  She never got to leave the hospital once we got there.  She was stage 4 with a tumor that engrossed and attached to every organ, and in her bones.  She fought to the end and we miss her smile everyday of our lives. We love you my lil HunBunn.
