IMAGE GALLERY: Blood Donated in Name of Framingham Girl

A year ago, Emma Tierney was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

She received chemotherapy at Dana-Farber for the cancer of the white blood cells. And last December, she returned to her classroom at Dunning Elementary in Framingham.

Today, Emma is “doing great” and her family and friends wanted to thank Children’s Hospital in Boston.

Yesterday, Team Emma held its 2nd Annual Pints for Emma Blood Drive, in honor of her at Jewell Insurance on Route 9.

Besides the blood drive, a silent auction was held to benefit the 6North Playroom Fund at Children’s Hospital.
