"Love, Kennedy" is a book written by Jason and Heather Hanson, who's daughter also had Battens disease. After her terminal diagnosis, Kennedy's life would never be the same. But even as her body broke down, her heart never failed, nor did her ability to love. With each precious passing day, more people witnessed her faith and kindness uniting her community. It is very inspiring story.
I just couldn't stop crying... my heart goes out to them. I can't even begin to imagine what they're going through.. enjoy every second with your little girl... I pray they find a cure🙏🏾
This is so heartbreaking. To hear her father’s voice crack when he’s talking about taking her to school just ripped my heart out. I don’t understand why she doesn’t qualify for disability. I know families that had premature babies with health issues and they collect $ from the government every month!!! How is Emma not covered?????
I think it was just because she was diagnosed late it honestly really depends if there district everything but really she should be covered to get all the medical support all of the therapies. She may need like everything should be covered. I don't know how.
It's potentially because her symptoms/issues aren't bad/severe enough to qualify. Obviously we can see otherwise but with government agencies, she "doesn't need disability" because she doesn't use a feeding tube, breathing tube, IVs, etc. Sure she needs meds and round the clock care, but not beyond what a government agency would deem a parent can provide. It's a shame
@cpiccerilli I don't need any of that though, I am "just" in a wheelchair, need meds and my mom to help take care of what needs to be done but otherwise I don't need any med equipment. I've been on disability since I was 16
They do if your under a certain income but they, the dad only one working it says, must make too much money for them to be able to help. That's unfortunate for them!
What is wrong with government disability???? I know all kinds of kids who get disability for ADHD so why can't a beautiful child living with a fatal disease not get it???? Yeah, that's BEYOND a broken system.
@@lukeohenry9422 I said no such thing. Of course it is. I have gotten numerous children disability for ADHD on appeal. The comparison to a short-lived fatal childhood cancer should be expedited and not put under appeal. There is a vast difference. How did I know someone like you would come along with no perspective hahaha. Come on now.
@@lukeohenry9422 Duh. It's the kind of law I practice. Simple to advocate for ADHD but not so much for a fatal cancer? Like I said, the system is broken.
Very sorry for what this family goes through. But sadly I don’t think they’ll be a cure for Emma in time. But for future generations they may one day have a cure. She’s a fighter that’s what’s important. Living the best life she can!
I can tell you the WORST DAY OF MY LIFE WAS FINDING OUT..there was/is a spot on my brain after having a seizure. My parents were in MINNESOTA with my aunts. My husband had to walk out as I was crying, my parents were crying as well as my grandma. I will NEVER FORGET MY DAD SAYING DO NOT LET ANYONE DO ANYTHING until they get home. My sisters beat me to the hospital as they were transferring me to a different hospital for ICU support. I wish nothing except for happiness & time for this little girl. Thank you for the likes, I just want this baby to have a wonderful life while she has the opportunity, the chance as well as the time. This is the ONE time a person can say their time is valuable.
i pray this little girl and her family will have a wonderful time with her and make so many memories while she is still here. hoping this family stays strong and emma lives as long as she possibly can💕
I saw this loss of everything happen to my completely healthy father, over a period of less than 3 months. That was horrifying, and as his main caretaker, I went through immense trauma, and sorrow. He passed away(he had cancerous tumors in his brain, and cancer in his spinal fluid) and I am still struggling yo understand what, and how this could happen to me, to my father, my family. I don't know if I could survive my child losing everything, and then their life. I wish I could hold this mother, and father, and give them strength, but the strength has to feel pointless at times. There is no fixing it. This is so, so, so heartbreaking. I cannot imagine how surreal this all feels for them.
I love how you support your daughter and I will be praying for her and her illness I hope she lives and knows that she is not alone and many people support her I will be following her journey I will pay for her god bless you❤❤❤❤
I knew looking at her, it was battens. I thought possibly sanfillipo but she didn’t have the look. Oh sweet baby. My sweet friend had a daughter named Alice. She passed at 8 with Battens. I miss her every single day.
May God bless this family. Stay strong. It must feel so horrible to have your child diagnosed with a fatal disease. She is a beautiful child and did not deserve this. God bless. Amen.
No matter how crappy your day is ,maybe you didnt get that promotion you wanted ,that date you wanted ,a dress or phone you deeamed of having ,so many things We take for granted ,nothing is worse than a very sick child that you cant help ,no matter how much you love them and you cant save therm and worse ,you cant save them because of money ,I hope and pray this family and every family with a sick child gets all the help they need .
This shows how precious life is. She got to experience a little bit of life without having her innocence violated by today's society. Life is precious no matter what. I love the smile on that little girl. I feel like crying with the parents because she may be their child but when you see a little girl like that you just want the best for her and want to treat her like my own. May the Lord bless that child.
It’s very sad and I wish it didn’t have to happen but on the other hand at least you’re getting a fair warning unlike some other parents that just have their children ripped from their lives in an instant❤❤❤
So sad to have to live with knowing your child is going to die. She’s such a beautiful baby girl. I’ve lost an infant, a stepson & my youngest son. When my infant daughter died in 1971, u couldn’t sleep nor cry. The pills that my doctor prescribed me to sleep didn’t help. Really hope she lives longer & yes take plenty of pictures & videos.
I can relate to that feeling of isolation due to my own experience in 2002 of a somewhat rare infection called nocardia infection that caused an abscess on my brain & quadriplegia 😢 I'm keeping you all in my prayers 🙏 Emma is completely inspiring to me 💖🙌💪🥰🫶
