It is with immense grief that I have to report that Emily was taken off life support and breathing ventilator last night at 9 pm and has passed away. While her condition was stable the last few days, yesterday her blood pressure shot up extremely high and her pupils stopped responding to stimulation.
The swelling in her head had become so intense that it ended up affecting the brain stem, which regulates your involuntary heart rate and breathing. The difficult decision was made to remove her from the ventilator. This was indeed unforeseen and unexpected. Emily went peacefully into heaven.
We are all devastated by this news. At this point we all want to help and support the Shann's right now, but the family asks that we please respect their privacy while they grieve and make arrangements. Please do not send any food to the house, they are very well established at the moment.
Funeral arrangements are being made now, I will post all details when they are ready on this site. Thanks to all of you wonderful friends, we have over $40,000 in Venmo funds. Please know that we will divert this from hotel to the funeral arrangements.
SO MANY generous people have reached out to me in the last week, it is really quite amazing the compassion friends and strangers alike have.
The Shann's will reach out in time to people, in the meantime we should respect their privacy. We should also go home tonight and give our kids an extra hug, for what a reminder today that nothing is guaranteed in life.
Thank you all again, more as soon as possible.
I enjoyed reading this because it highlights several packaging considerations that are often overlooked during the early stages of a business. Many entrepreneurs focus heavily on the product itself, but the packaging can have a significant influence on how customers receive and remember their orders. During some recent research, I found information about custom boxes London that expanded on many of the concepts discussed in this post. One thing that stood out to me is the importance of selecting packaging that provides a good fit for the product rather than relying on oversized boxes that create unnecessary waste. It's also encouraging to see more businesses considering long-term sustainability alongside practical shipping requirements. While comparing different options, I also reviewed details about…
Thanks for sharing these practical plumbing tips. It's refreshing to read content that focuses on prevention instead of just repairs. I also visited Local Plumber Fishers IN to compare reliable professionals available for residential plumbing projects.
The Sisters of Life send our prayers and our deepest sympathies. May the Divine Mercy of Jesus flood the whole Shann family and may Emily rest in the eternal embrace of His love.
We are so sorry for this loss and tragedy in your family. Please know that Emily's beautiful soul will live on in all the people and things she loved. May your reliance on God's strength, mercy, wisdom, and consolation be ever present to all of you especially in these coming days. We will lift our voices in praise for her lovely life here on Earth and forever in Heaven.

When tomorrow starts without me,
please try to understand, that an angel
came and called my name, and took me by the hand;
the angel said my place was ready, in Heaven far above,
and that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love.
But when I walked through Heaven's gates, I felt so much
at home, for God looked down, smiled at me,
and told me "Welcome home".
So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart, for every time you think of me,
I'm right there in your heart.
Our prayers for Emily's soul and the Shann's comfort during this difficult time.
