PARSIPPANY — The Wyman family was joined by several hundred attendees at a sold-out beefsteak dinner fundraiser for Emma, which featured a performance from comedian Artie Lange. The event was hosted by The Morris County Sheriff‘s PBA Local 298 at the Parsippany PAL Building, on Saturday, November 20.
Emma Wyman’s father is a corrections officer at the Morris County Jail, and her mother is a sixth grade social studies teacher at Brooklawn Middle School.
“Emma Marie Wyman is a happy, beautiful (one-year-old) baby girl undergoing at least one year’s worth of treatment at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia for a rare type of sarcoma. Her parents, AJ & Lindsey (Kmit) Wyman, who are lifelong residents of Parsippany, learned of Emma’s tumor in late May and have taken her to Philadelphia to be treated by internationally-recognized pediatric oncologists. As they await more in-depth results regarding the type of sarcoma Emma has and begin chemotherapy, AJ has begun to take time off from his job, while Lindsey is on her unpaid summer break from teaching sixth grade social studies at Brooklawn Middle School. During this life-altering time, AJ and Lindsey will incur costs from medical to travel expenses, while keeping up with their regular monthly bills for their cars, home, etc.
Please know that even the smallest donation will go a long way to aid baby Emma and her loving parents during this incredibly difficult time. Thank you for your love, support, and above all, your prayers.”
