A few years ago, I encountered Dr. Sarah Reynolds at a conference dedicated to mothers facing abuse. Her story regarding her daughter, Emily, is one of the most heart-wrenching cases involving a vulnerable child that I have ever come across.
Dr. Reynolds’ 8-year-old daughter, Emily, suffers from a rare and perilous condition known as severe chronic neutropenia. Despite Dr. Reynolds’s deep desire to care for her daughter, the situation is complicated by the fact that Emily is currently under the physical custody of her estranged husband. Since Dr. Reynolds is an American citizen while her daughter and husband hold German nationality, their case remains caught in a web of international legal challenges. A petition advocating for Emily can be found at www.SaveEmily.org.
Dr. Reynolds’ Plea for Help
In her own words, Dr. Reynolds shared her desperate plea for assistance:
“Today, I reach out to you to seek your support. My daughter, Emily, is gravely ill. She is battling severe chronic neutropenia, a life-threatening condition that affects only about 700 individuals globally. Emily requires essential medication (G-CSF) and thorough medical evaluations, which she is currently being denied. The treatment available could be lifesaving.”
To learn more about her struggle with this rare but treatable blood disorder, akin to leukemia and AIDS, please visit her website, where you can also view a brief video detailing her fight for life. I urge you to sign the petition under the section titled “Speak Up and Be Heard” to advocate for the necessary treatment that could secure her future. Every child deserves the fundamental right to live.
