Emily's Fight To Recovery #fightonEmily

My name is Logan Mojica I am 12 years old and I’m starting this GoFundMe to go to the family of Emily Plaza. Emily is a fun-loving 6th grader who enjoys reading, watching movies and making tik tok videos. Her favorite color is pink, and she loves chocolate heresy and teddy bears. Most of all Emily loves spending time with her family. What should have been a weekend full of joy quickly changed, changing the family's lives forever. 

On August 3rd, Emily was rushed to LAC-USC medical center after collapsing at her home. Sadly, what was thought to be a seizure ended up being far more devastating. Doctors had discovered her brain was bleeding, Emily had suffered a Brain Aneurysm requiring her to have emergency surgery. Doctors were able to successfully stop the bleeding and clip the aneurysm during surgery. Emily is currently on the road to recovering.

As Emily embarks on the fight of her life, her road to recovery will be long.  Unable to attend school, Emily will be spending much of the upcoming year in an intense recovery center at Rancho Los Amigas for rehabilitation. As you can imagine, this terrible event has turned their world upside down like most of us, their health insurance will cover some of the expenses, but this will be a long battle that will affect Emily and her family.

As one of Emily’s good friend and classmate from Nativity Catholic school  I wanted to start this  fundraiser to help reduce the burden on Emily’s parents, so that the family can focus all their efforts on Emily’s treatment, healing and spending valuable time together.  

Anyone who knows Emily and her family they are incredibly giving when it comes to their time, love, and energy for anyone in need. If we can help relieve some of the day to day financial pressures that will mount during this time of critical care, we too will have done our part to support them in a time of sincere need. 

I know they will appreciate anything to help, if you are unable to help financially, please keep Emily in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you #fightonEmily
