This is Abby, Emily's youngest sister. As some of you may know Emily's lung collapsed on Wednesday night and has collapsed again since then. She was rushed into Epsom hospital on Weds and has gone from there to Foulis, to Intensive care in the brompton.

She is now stable, but very unwell. We have had some very kind messages asking if people can help but unfortunately all anyone can do at the moment is keep their fingers crossed for her. My parents are staying nearby but even they are not allowed to stay with her so visiting is unwise as it's on strict terms while shes in intensive care.

As always, Em is being a complete star and is very strong she has given us smiles many times through it all. She is calm at the moment and just trying to keep fighting though she's very tired.

Thank you for all your positive thoughts, Em knows everyone is rooting for her and is doing her best to keep going. I will update as soon as there is news.

C'mon Angel, I've got my fingers, legs and arms crossed - which is making typing a bit difficult!

Ally has christened you our pink leader :)...and we need our pink leader back, RIGHT NOW, in fact.

We need you to continue teaching us the greatness of all things pink, like painting my toes pink which I would never have done before and (to borrow your phrase) is just ooh so pretty and smile-inducing. :)

Thinking of you lots and love and hugs to you, your family and Adam xxx
