Emma’s Testimony

Shared in Fast/Testimony Meeting by her mother on 06/02/13

My mom told me that people at Church are going to be fasting and praying for me and I was surprised because I didn’t know that.

When my mom told me about FA, and that I will die without a transplant, and I knew that I might die from my bone marrow transplant, I cried a little bit but not very much because I’m not afraid to die. If I die I know I will get to be with Jesus and I know I will get to be with my family again.

I know my family would be sad if I died, and my mom would cry a lot, but I don’t want them to be sad because I would be happy if I was with Jesus.

Since my hair will all fall out when I have my transplant, I wanted it to be the colors of the rainbow, so I got to have it different colors. I’ve been excited about my transplant because I can get better and when I do I can take dance lessons, play with my friends and go on a water slide.

If you ever feel scared you can pray and Jesus will help you feel better. I have prayed when I’ve been scared and He has helped me feel better. I am a Mormon and I believe in Jesus. He is very important to me. He is the Son of God. He is our brother. He died, but He lives in heaven.

If we do good things and help other people we can go to heaven and live with Him. We don’t remember what heaven is like, but I know about heaven because my mommy has told me about it.

In the name of Jesus Christ, The End
