Tribute to a disabled baby on YouTube.com, Ninety-nine Balloons

Eliot Mooney was a baby who lived only 99 daysThe reason was a serious genetic disorder that he suffered and that doctors had diagnosed long before his birth. Eliot's parents they wanted to move on with the pregnancy despite Trisomy 18 that the baby suffered and condemned him to certain death.

Knowing that he had the days counted, the parents did not hesitate to celebrate every day of the baby's life, as if it were a birthday, every day Eliot lived was loaded with all the love they could provide him, every moment, whatever Outside, he lived intensely.

All those moments and all the love uttered have been captured in a video that pays tribute to little Eliot, the video is titled Ninety-nine Balloons, the reason is the 99 balloons thrown into space the day the little boy passed away. Each balloon represented a day of the baby's life, all of them being a celebration.

The video is really touching, the homemade images and photographs made by their parents show us how much love nested in their hearts. It is perhaps difficult to express feelings with words, we advise you to watch the video. Life seen with the eyes of love.

Eliot died on October 30, 2006, managing to live 99 days, a challenge against the forecasts, which indicated that he could hardly live so long. Our most sincere recognition to parents who, despite having exercised as such for only 99 days, have proven to be the best parents a child could want. Although it would also have been possible to avoid so much suffering, but one cannot judge when one is not in the skin of the one who lives it.
