January 2, 2013, was the day that Brent Gehring’s life would change forever: his then 1-year-old daughter, Emma, was diagnosed with brain cancer.

When Gehring and his wife, Kathryn, who have two other kids, received the news, they had to take a day off of work to process what they had learned. Gehring returned to his job as a Marketing Teacher at Bellevue East High School in Nebraska the next day and shared their story with each class.
