"Emily was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia in June 2016, days before her 8th birthday. We were told she was in desperate need of a bone marrow transplant in order to survive. On August 4, 2016 Emily received her new bone marrow cells and God’s hand of protection has been upon her ever since. We are very thankful for the journey of healing. We are very excited to be this years mission family at the Orlando American Cancer Society Cattle Barons ball.  Emily loves to be an ambassador for these various entities that are doing all they can to raise awareness and dollars for pediatric cancer research.  She is alive today because of research done previous to her diagnosis that made it possible to fight as always used to say “this ugly disease.”  American cancer society literature was what kept me Informed of what we were going through and what to expect with her diagnosis and prognosis.  As a parent, you are overwhelmed so being able to have that resource to go to really helped me.  We are excited to be involved with American cancer society sharing Emily’s story of recovery to help bring hope to others, raise awareness and help bring dollars to further research." - Stacy Ayers Thank you for sharing Emily’s journey with us. @goldtogether is a community of survivors, volunteers, and supporters who believe that the future can be free from childhood cancer.
