Health Condition: Emma Kok, at 13 years old, was hospitalized due to issues with the vital tube that feeds her nutritional needs. Despite the success of the surgical intervention, she has described the immense pain she experienced during this period.
Gastroparesis: Emma suffers from gastroparesis, a complex medical condition. This illness inhibits her stomach, making it nearly dormant. As a result, she relies on two feeding pumps that provide her with essential nutrition. Due to gastroparesis, she can only consume minimal food quantities, which also restricts her diet.
Challenges and Resilience: Despite her health challenges, Emma's spirit remains unbroken. Her journey on The Voice Kids and her passion for music showcase her determination. Her ongoing battle with gastroparesis underscores the strength she exhibits daily.
Recent Health Update (2023): Emma underwent a procedure related to the tube essential for her feeding. Although the treatment was successful, she spoke openly about the excruciating pain she endured during the process. Despite her health challenges, Emma continues to inspire many with her dedication to singing.
Family Support: Emma is not alone in her journey. Her parents, Vico Kok and Nathalie Kok, along with her brother, Enzo Kok, have been her pillars of strength. Vico Kok is involved in Business Development, Marketing, and Communication at Philharmonie Zuidnederland. The family's unwavering support has been instrumental in ensuring Emma's well-being.

Emma is an ambassador for people with gastric paralysis and has been dependent on tube feeding for almost her entire life.
