Gemma was removed from the care of her parents when she was almost a year old due to physical abuse. At age 2, Gemma was diagnosed with cancer, Neuroblastoma, which she fought bravely over many months until she was in remission. Unfortunately, in July 2025, Gemma's cancer returned, and she has been given a terminal diagnosis, with two to three months to live. She loves princesses, Frozen, and tea parties.
