Our Why

Sunday 7th Apr
The Emmy Strong Initiative was inspired by and created in memory of my niece, Emmy Valentina Carter who lived her life to the fullest everyday. She overcame 4 major heart surgeries and many other medical challenges during her 8.5 months of life before passing away suddenly. Half of her life was spent at the Alberta Children’s Hospital and the other half was at the Stollery Children’s Hospital. Emmy was and always will be a heart warrior full of strength, courage, bravery and resiliency. The purpose of the Emmy Strong Initiative is to keep Emmy’s legacy alive and eventually form a foundation to help these two hospitals continue to provide the specialty care that they do and the continued resources for children and families, through various programs and initiatives. This fundraiser is to help kids in the Stollery Hospital. With your support, we'll help kids from backyards across central and northern Alberta access some of the best physical and mental health care anywhere in the world. The Stollery Hospital is a cause that's near and dear to our hearts since our beloved Emmy’s time there.

My Gorgeous Emmy

Sunday 7th Apr
I am forever grateful 
Forever changed 
Since I met 
My beautiful niece
She gave my finger a squeeze
I could feel her strength 
Her little fingernails were red 
We watched you sleep
Your breathing got stronger
Your heart did too
And our love for you
Deepened 
Every day she got stronger 
We dreamed more and more
Of the endless possibilities
Our lives with you in it
Some days I got to hold you
I’ll never forget 
The first time 
I got to carry you in my arms
Now I forever carry you
In my heart 
Your fingers still grip tight
My finger and my heart
Now we look for meaning
Someway to honour you
Each day I am strong 
I know it’s because of Emmy
And fundraising and sharing
Is just one way
That we keep Emmy’s legacy
Alive 
🩷

Thanks to my supporters
