Twelve-year-old Emily Carter, battling osteosarcoma, had one final wish: to meet her hero, Caitlin Clark. Her father, Jason, wrote a letter to Clark, hoping for a response. After a nurse posted a photo of Emily holding a homemade Clark jersey, the story went viral, reaching Caitlin Clark herself.
Moved by the request, Clark flew privately to Tulsa, arriving at the hospital in full uniform to meet Emily. She spent two hours with her, talking basketball and playing with a small foam ball. Before leaving, Clark gave Emily a custom jersey, telling her she was part of the team now.
