Imagine waking up every morning and experiencing the sensation of losing the use of another finger, toe or limb at a pace that shuts down your entire body within weeks. First you lose your ability to speak, next you lose your eyesight, until finally, paralysis takes over. Imagine it is terminal with virtually no chance of a cure and you have 135 days to live. Your mind remains fully intact, fully aware. You are locked in your body, alone in your thoughts. Now imagine you are six-years-old.
This is the true story of a girl named Elena and her battle against cancer. In her last days she showed a community how to love and how to live. Written through the eyes of her parents as a remembrance for her younger sister, her daily story tells one of humility and inspiration as she lives each day, one at a time. In her short time she painted a masterpiece that would hang in an art museum, she accomplished a truly spectacular series of wishes that she alone created and she inspired a cause that remains today to help children everywhere in their fight against brain cancer.
