Emma’s wish, however, was something quite different. She asked to be able to marry her boyfriend, DJ, also just ten years old.
Before long, Emma’s cause had attracted a lot of attention in her local community. The collection of volunteers and well-wishers adopted the name “Emma’s Army”, as well as the goal to make this little girl’s dreams come true before her time came.
Eventually, the Make-A-Wish Foundation stepped in to help Emma’s family raise funds. Emma’s mom Alina explained: “Most kids want to go to Disneyland, but Emma wanted to get married, be a wife, and have three kids.”
Indeed, as per reports, the “wedding” wasn’t the first time Emma and DJ had tried to marry one another. The two youngsters had tried to have a wedding in school when they were aged eight, and even selected their respective bridesmaids and groomsmen from among their classmates. Unfortunately for Emma and DJ, however, their teacher wouldn’t permit the wedding, irrespective of how unofficial it was.
