LITTLE Emily Gentry is only six years old but already bravery beyond her years has seen her win a battle which could have ended her life.
The courageous six-year-old has been through more in the last few months than most people will have to endure in a lifetime.
After being diagnosed with a condition that attacks the heart, the Suffolk schoolgirl had to undergo a vital heart transplant.
Despite responding badly to the treatment at times, Emily is now back home with her devoted parents Mark and Marie.
Although they have had to face a traumatic time Emily and her family have stayed positive throughout their darkest moments.
Their full, emotional story is in tonight's EVENING STAR.
