Get the Kleenex, this one's a tearjerker

You have to watch this video about little Eliot. He was born with a genetic disorder even though doctors said that he wouldn't make it. He survived for 99 days even though the odds were against him. It's an amazing story about his parent's love. Instead of dreading the inevitable, they celebrated each day they had with Eliot. In fact, they celebrated a birthday each day until the end. Through his father's letters to his son, you can follow their journey until they released 99 balloons at Eliot's funeral in honor of each day he blessed this world.
