The Meaning Behind 99 Balloons

Searching for some videos just now and this video I wanna share breaks my heart...maybe some of you had watched it. It's about this couple who gave birth to their first child - Eliot Hartman Mooney. They were being told that Eliot might not make it to birth because he had Trisomy 18, but this baby came to this world and fight for his own life...although 99 may not be a HUGE number to you, but to Eliot and his parents, this is a precious number...99 precious days together !!!!!
A tribute to such a beautiful but short life. What his father said was so touch....they know that they have limited time together, they cherish every second with Eliot while he's still in their arms...not wasting time drowning in sorrows. The 99 balloons each representing the days of Eliot Hartman Mooney's life, he's a strong baby !!!
So...here's the video of this amazing angel...a memorable video made by his parents
