    Her family was able to raise over million dollars to develop this medication. Truly amazing. I donated money and I was homeless at the time. My prayers to this family and everyone suffering from this horrible disease

    Thank you for sharing this heartbreaking/heartwarming part of this family's life with a daughter changing so dramatically, due to Batten disease. I didn't know of it until watching this video. How brave all members of this family are, what a huge change this must by on all levels, to live every day with a determination to do all you can, and also go the extra mile to make it a good day.
    I pray for this family, that the genetic treatment Mila receives will reverse the damage far enough so that she enjoys life again.

To see you all move mountains for your beautiful little girl was very tough to watch all of her abilities deteriorate so heartbreaking. You loved her so much. God bless you all.

      Mila just died a few days ago at the young age of 10. My guess is that Milasen didn't increase her lifespan, but delayed the symptoms, making the decline towards the end of her life more rapid. (I'm not a doctor, so my theory is probably wrong)

    My mind has been playing this over and over again: the parents who yell at their kids don’t realize that their time with them is fleeting. They may not be aware that there are parents out there, whose child is severely disabled, or frequently hospitalized, born with medical conditions, or like this….with life-threatening or even fatal diseases, or worse, dies suddenly. The questions lingering in my mind are: what if they become those parents? What if this was your child And what they may also not be aware of is this: their child is never theirs to begin with; all life, including their children’s, belongs to God. He gives and takes away.

      @@laurazander3012 there's Milasen, the medicine that they made specifically for her, and it just slowed down the symptoms. For example if she was partially blind she wouldn't gain her eyesight back, it would just slow down the rate of the blindness getting worse. Instead of being fully blind in 2 months, it could take 4 months. She passed away 8 months ago. 😿 Bless her! She seemed like a very sweet girl.🖤🤍
