99 Balloons

This YouTube video is a real tearjerker. Have some Kleenex ready.

In 2006, Matt and Ginny Mooney had a little boy named Eliot. He was born with Edwards Syndrome. It’s a genetic disorder that wreaks havoc on internal organs. Less than 10-percent of the affected live past their first year.

The Mooneys wasted little time with grieving. Instead, they threw Eliot a birthday party every day. And they documented the time with their son. This video is their story. It’s both heartbreaking and inspiring.
