Gretna resident Emily Koesters was diagnosed with Schimke Immunoosseous Dysplasia - a complicated medical term for one of the rarest forms of Dwarfism. Unlike most dwarfs you've seen, Emily is proportioned and stands 41 inches tall. Her condition is so rare that Emily is only one of four others in the United States who have been diagnosed with Schimke, and one of only 45 across the world. It's believed that many more children may have Schimke but the journey to a diagnosis can take years and most lose their battle from the symptoms of kidney failure or stroke before they've been accurately diagnosed. Emily already has received her father's kidney and has survived stage 3 cancer.

Little Giants Foundation littlegiantsfoundation.blogspot.com was formed to assist with the $3.5 million dollars needed to complete the research and testing towards finding a cure for this disease.
