No child deserves this ...dear Lord watch over them
not one..
Not lord..own karma
Sofia Simon I cried through the whole thing it’s to sad
amen !
Dils Dil how would it be karma getting cancer
The second she asked him where is mommy gonna be and he said in my heart
INSTANT WATERWORKS
manda gomes I know..I can't imagine being in her position but it could happen to any of us..it remind me how short life really is❤️
I commend this lady for her strength and endurance. Her personal faith in God is evident and a reality. This to me has made the difference where she can face death with the assurance she will be with God and can leave a deep legacy for her son. X
This is a good way to show you just how how short life really is
i cried when he said that
I'm halfway through and been teary eyed the whole time
I love how they celebrated her last days, telling her how much they love her and how much they will miss her, but mostly making her happy about her life, it wasn't meaningless, it worth it
Great 👍🏽 worth
That child got the best possible way to heal. He had time to accept and say goodbye. I hope he's doing well. Doing what his mother taught him. I wish all the best to him and his family.
You said everything I wanted to say ❤
When she died on the day she predicted, I lost it. Tears everywhere.
Kaitlin Eilers when people are terminally ill they often can feel it coming..
same prediction happened to my relative and my neighbour.one saw it in dream,the other one woke up from the coma and said that angel told him that he ll die 3 days later and told his wife that they also showed him where he ll be in after life.then he forbid his wife from crying after his death.he went into the coma right after that and never woke up.died exactly 3 days ater like he said
My birthday was coming soon and my mom kept asking my aunt about it. She would say "When is the girls birthday?" (I'm a twin). She wanted to wait til she saw us turn 21 before she passed.. She made it, but was in a deep sleep.. She passed the night of our 21st birthday. Best present I could have ever recieved... As messed up as it sounds, It was a good feeling to know she was no longer suffering.
My daughters grandpa passed the day he predicted as well. Just a month ago his last words were "i want to live" which was a song played at his funeral.
I pregnant I cried so hard ..
This woman who was dying had more hopes than many of us who are alive, and well.
Rest in peace, Ellie.
Your story touched me.
Right!!! I'm so happy but so sad. She was so strong and brave.
@@Mea_Davis she was. I hope her son grows up to be someone his mom would be proud of. I wish him the best.
Jimin is my cutie pie, I agree!!
Jimin is my cutie pie amen to that your so right to many people moaning over silly stuff watch this and reevaluate your life priorities ❤️
Your right about that
Not even a word in the dictionary could describe how beautiful this was.
So true.
And emotional too 🥰💖💞
So true I'm so sad
It was wonderful to see this.Even at upsetting times. It ended up a beautiful party of family and friends having a wonderful time together celebrating the young woman's life .
I agree ❤❤❤❤
I don't know why I even watch these.. I can't stop crying. What a strong and inspirational woman, and her sweet son.. ugh. RIP.
Same I’m pregnant and these hormones got me a mess 😢😭 this lady is so strong and inspirational.
Kat
I don't know why either it just really attacked me 😭
I know!!!
Let’s not forget dad in all this, he’s had it rough too and came out of it. A very loving husband and father.
Me: nothing..
RUclips recommendation: time to cry
Sharon Ojay 😩 Seriously!! I just sobbed so hard!
Omg true I had the longest crying session in my life. I still can't stop. It's so sad but at the same time so incredibly beautiful how she sees the world and enjoy her last week's its just so strong and beautiful.
Agreed!
It always be like that
Agreed
I cried my eyes out the whole video, I don't think I could ever accept death as well as she did
Same i can't even imagine the heartbreak but i cried so much and i almost never crie during videos.😫😫😖
why?u already know that u ll die one day and accepted it.does it matter when?i grew up with seing cancer around me.almost everyone in both sides of my family,including my own parent got it.some survived,some died because of the late diagnosis.my uncle is fighting with brain cancer and we are waiting for his time.my dad is stage 3 prostate cancer and medications are slowing it down but cant stop it so he ll die in a year or 2 cause he is almost 80.i got used to with this thing so much,so long,im age 44,just waiting when i ll get my own news.so im very carefull.but i prefer to know when i ll go like she did so i wont waste time about stupid stuff.i ll happily make my peace,i ll say see u guys later instead of goodbye to my family and i ll be greatfull to have a chance to do it.
Same. I am a guy and this got to me. I was feeling the pain man..
I'm Casper same! If you don’t cry your eyes out watching this, you are not human. 😔
700th like
Even though her pain was immense, she eased everyone else’ before she passed. What a lovely soul.
It's so great to know Jalen can always watch this video for the rest of his life whenever he misses his mother, and enjoy the last moments he had with her, & What a great human being Andy & Van Winkle are.
Wa
It will take a really long time before he could watch this and feel happy. The pain of her loss will mean its too heartbreaking to watch for quite some time. But it is rheye for him when he is ready for it
Phrases that broke my ❤:
- My mom has to die
- I'm really going to miss her
ArmyNurse :3 glad he has a loving caring dad
I broke at I named her Ellie and that her heart.
😭😭😭
And chacha chicken
ArmyNurse :3 ❤️💪🏾
When you cry so hard you can't breathe and everything clogs up 😭😭😭
Thats me right now
Me too💔😭
That's mee
Yup. Me too.
It's hitting me hard :/
She prepared her son for their parting so wonderfully 💕
I’m crying for a total stranger a beautiful, brave woman and although she knew she was going to pass, the light , the love, the strength, the laughter and still being a great mum till the end R.I.P Ellie. Love to your family and friends.
Горько и больно за женщину милую но как ей повезло с родеыми и родным с ней милые милые милые Аминь 🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖💖Прими ее душу господи
How are u ? :are 6:35 u still with us?
Wow that child has a very mature understanding of what’s happened. Many blessings to Him and Father.
She helped him prepare. Often times death is sudden and kids don't get to prepare. She gave him an awesome life gift.
He is also very young to where I do not think he understood the magnitude of death, kids can be ok, it affects them later after some time, that is why counseling and talking is much needed after the fact.
@@amberlocsaknot kids are devastated by death. You must be talking about babies. This child is old enough to fully understand and feel this loss. I know people who lost their parents young and believe me they understand, and it hurts them deeply. They typically become very angry by 11 or 12, and it's not just puberty. It's puberty and a deep deep hurt they have to work through.
@@yourstruly_777 that's exactly what I said.....you must have not understood??? He knows she is dead but cannot fully comprehend that she is gone forever until he is older, like I said and you repeated only adding an age to your reply?
@@yourstruly_777 you contradicted yourself....if they become very angry by 11-12 than they did not grieve and understand death. I.e. too young to understand the magnitude of death, young enough to know things are changed yes.
I haven't cried this hard in years. This hit me so hard.
Same. To walk towards death with SL MUCH grace....what a beautiful human ❤
you have a lot of compassion and empathy. It is a good thing.
I bawled and had to stop the video for a bit to gather myself to continue watching . Luckily it was right during the part after her son spoke during the celebration of life and stripper came out . Lol 😂 my tears turned to a smile seeing how happy she was :-) she is an amazing woman
Your son is a beautiful legacy.
this is so lovely, but hOW DID YOU WRITE THIS ONE WEEK AGO THIS WAS RELEASED TODAY,,, I'M SO CONFUSED.
Read a comment that said, "I don't know why I watch these...I can't stop crying." I know that my river of tears is from being overwhelmed by the beauty of the story/persons involved more so than sadness. Crying in this way feels like a release of tension. I feel energized after experiencing the grace and expressions of love.
BigSister2wkago
I just feel so bad for complaining about trivial things that I go through. I am so blessed to have seen this. Thank you, Ellie. Your mom was right; you are truly an inspiration.
I stopped complaining about my fortunate life and started thanking god for everything he has gifted me with
Amen!
I am a divorce, have three little boys and I am a mini stroke survivor. I feel so blessed to be able to look after my boys. R.I.P Ellie.
Best wishes for your son.
Jamyang Yoesel wow deep
Amen sis
This is so sad feel sorry for her son after watch
I’m sure this will mean a lot to her family and mainly to her son. It’s a forever something he can look back on and remember how smiley, happy, and strong his mother was.
Bailey Spelt Beefy YES. My mom has been gone for 10 years and I’d give just about anything to hear her voice or watch videos of her.
This will be priceless for little Jalen❤️
Jessica Conrad I’m so sorry for you loss❤️
Bailey Spelt Beefy, I totally agree with you. I lost my baby brother Jason in August 2018, then in September 2018, I lost my daddy, then about a week later I lost my own son Cody, he was only 23 and also he had a baby born the same day he died.
Tina Monroy omg I’m so deeply sorry for all your losses. I can’t even begin to imagine your pain. So sorry
@@eviem70 , thank you
I’m sitting here hugging my daughter as tight as I can. Leaving her too early is one of my greatest fears.
Always pray
My brother was her husband!! My sister in law was diagnosed with terminal cancer a few months before our father passed away.
My sister unfortunately succumbed on the same day of our fathers passing 2 years later. His grace and patience, dedication and unwavering faith was the most beautiful thing I’ve experienced in life! God bless you husbands that don’t give up
God bless your brother and their son
Ellie was ur sister in law?
@@hollyb98401 no my brother suffered the same loss as her husband! I guess I worded that incorrectly.
she never for a second ever thought about herself, it was always about her son.
she is a true mother
Amen!
Okay but you can still be a „real mum“ even if you don‘t think about your kids 24/7. You can still be a „real mum“ and also make time and space to think about yourself. Mums don‘t have to sacrifice everything for their kids, that‘s a really toxic thought. I get that this woman is really inspiring and admirable but we can‘t hold all mothers to these standards...
Marie Morgen oh most definitely, sorry if my comment came off like that. that wasnt what i meant
@@maries.5587 um I hope you dont have any kids because sorry to break it to you but you dont get to bring in an innocent soul into this world and think you dont have to think about them. Once you have kids its no longer about just you in any way or form. Your children need you so its about add about them 24/7 that doesn't mean its less about you but it means they will ALWAYS be included in every decision you make. The lady who made the commment said NOTHING wrong.
Michael Miller I’m sorry if it came across that way, but I never meant to say that parents don’t have to think about their kids. This is so obvious that I didn’t include it in my comment, but OF COURSE bringing kids into the world makes you responsible for them, we’re all aware of that. And I’m not asking for parents to become neglectful and abandon their kids, obviously. What I found problematic about the comment was solely the part about “not thinking about herself for a second” and how apparently that makes her a “real mum”. I commented because I didn’t want mums to read that comment and feel guilty about not completely sacrificing their lives to their kids and neglecting their own needs. When I wrote that part I thought about mums who want to go back to work and not be a stay at home mum, who want to meet up with friends sometimes, who need some alone time after playing with their kids. Nowhere did I say that mums should stop thinking about their kids. But as long as their kids are in safety, I think they’re entitled to breaks and alone-time if they need it. And they’re allowed to still make time for their own needs. I’m only 19 and don’t plan to have kids any time soon but I know that if I ever were to have kids I would definitely need to take care of my OWN needs aswell in order to be a good mum. In my opinion “not thinking about themselves for a second” is holding mums to an unrealistic standard that will do more harm than good - to mums AND their kids. At least that’s what I think. I didn’t mean to start a fight and I surely didn’t mean to accuse the commenter. Your assumption about how I’m going to be a bad mum however was really hurtful and completely unnecessary, especially coming from someone who doesn’t know me at all. This comment was not about me and you shouldn’t have made it about me.
The boy hugging his bear... brought a 40 year-old man to tears.
ditto
It did the same to this 48 year old woman as well
Ditto
Also this 56 year old woman.
I’m 19 and I’m bawling like a baby rn
I’m literally crying like a baby. This was so touching. Ellie, I look forward to the day we meet in the next life. Fly high. One love.
What a strong woman. Such grace about her life. I'd be a whine crying all the time. I really admire her.
That kid is strong. When he gets older nothing will stop him
Morgz Cox he is super strong
Amen
Yes cus him mom will be watching over him.
He doesn't fully understand yet, but I know God will help him.
Absolutely nothing. My God!!!
“they can’t take care of it, so mommy has to die.” no one should ever have to speak those words, this is heartbreaking. i feel so sorry for all of ellie’s family and friends, r.i.p ellie❤️ this shouldn’t have to happen.
Curlyheadpickle 1980 same here... 😭
I’m crying my eyes out
Worst thing I've ever had to tell my kids. Watching the innocence of childhood wash away in a moment knowing they will never have a normal childhood. Knowing you are causing them so much pain, life long pain, and there is nothing I can do to change it.
that part makes everyone cry..😭
It seems a little passive aggressive, it certainly risks the child thinking it’s the fault of the doctors.
I hope Isaac, his father and her family/friends are doing ok. As someone who lost a parent to cancer at 8 years old, I know the feeling all too well. Would love to see an update on how they all are.
Honestly, this is my worst fear. Leaving my son in this world without a mommy. The difference is that he doesn't have a father to fall back on like this wonderful man. I hope her soul is resting in radiance and that Jalen is doing well 💜
That is also my biggest fear my friend, my son doesn't have a father to lean on or have his back.
@@kellyfostercash8026 you're gonna be just fine. You're gonna find someone to love your baby just as much as you do. I know it ❤️
you're gonna be just fine. You're gonna find someone to love your baby just as much as you do. I know it ❤️
Ellie you’ve changed my life forever. I will forever be a better person because of you.
Brianna B. I swear to god I feel the same exact way.
SAME.
Me tooo starting today I’m going to be more grateful for the things I have and not take anything for granted
Same i look at life different because of you
There people talk so much bullshit. Nobody changes the life by watching a video. Tomorrow they are gonna be the same, with the same worries and evilness.
Jaylen if you see this you are the most strongest boy ever
Jaylen.. if u can see this..
i also agree.. and please know that the angels will be with ur mom♡ she is around u♡ u will see ur mom when its ur time to leave here on this earth... u can also ask her 2 come 2 u and she will in ur dreams... when she does it will be a valadation 4 u from her that she is ok n not far... im so sorry 4 ur loss♡
she has a Jaylen... :-)
i have a ♡Jayden... :-)
#ThatsReallyCool♡
@@nikkigarcia_2007 Lol😂😂😂 that's so crazy those would make a good boy and girl name for boy and girl twins 😁😁😁😁
jalen* is was stronger than i could ever be
I broke down when the dad cried I'm crying may she rest in peace I love you all sending prayers to their family
Lost a good friend to cancer this past year. One thing that she did in her last days, which I deeply appreciated, was she told me how she wanted to be supported. This is so important because how people want supported can change from hour to hour. Sometimes she wanted to reminisce about what she could do in the past, sometimes she wanted to redirect to what she could do still in the present, other times she wanted to look to the future. Sometimes she just wanted to feel sad, sometimes she wanted to celebrate life, other times she wanted to be cheered up, other times she just wanted to be together. I'm really grateful that she was so honest with me so that I could be as good of a support as possible.
How treasured your memories of her must be!
Bless you for being the solid support she needed
❤
🙏🏿💐 I’m sorry
my youtube recommendations are deadset on making me cry
kate rowe deadset on making people emotional tbh
For real. Along with this video one of my recommendations was a video of people reading the last text a loved one sent them. Like damn RUclips, why you want me to be sad. 😢
Ikr
Forreal?!!!! Like why damn I just balled my eyes out the whole video! This was beautifully presented though! If I ever get cancer and it's terminal I now know how I want my kids to remember me and how to talk about it.
Kate Rowe that’s so weird. How can you cope with that.
She prepared her son for her passing amazingly
My mother wrote me a beautiful letter. I took care of her for her last two months when she was dying of ovarian cancer. My father had just died of cancer of the pancreas. i Don't think my dad really believed he would die but my mother seemed to know she hadn't much time left. She prepared me for her death well, probably better than my dad prepared me for his. When my mother died I was sad but not shocked because she had prepared me. I didn't believe my dad would die until the day before he actually died. I think its so important to prepare your loved ones when you know death is imminent- like Ellie and my mom did. i wasn't a child when they died- I was 36 but there was still a troubled child inside of me.
Totally Fantastic But
So Devestating
Made me cry 😭😭😭💔💔💔
@@brisingarinstaridavis7084 Stupid and pointless emojis
@@claudiakrizay *Chill, it’s a way of expressing emotions that can’t be read.*
Yes she did!!!❤️🙏🏽
This little guy is so brave and strong. It's not enough for a parent to live on in a child. Children deserve their mom
I was not ready for this at all. She has more strength then A LOT of people I know. Thank you Ellie for giving me inspiration & peace in my heart. May she rest in peace
Watching this makes me cry 😭. I want to share my story about living with Autism one ☝️ day on camera 📷. I’m 37 going on 38 year old And from another generation and was never diagnosed with autism until I was 15 years old in November 1998. All thanks to #Druromi for is herbal medicine that get me free from Autism today.
@@lisaoney1973 Maybe one you will be able to. I'm sure you have the strength in you too do it!! Just stay strong & never let anyone doubt yourself.
I dont get how she is so prepared to pass on. she's a very strong woman
Taylor Weidler anyone gets tired of suffering with an incurable disease.They get to the point when they really want to pass away
Ya Manz I know they do but having a child and knowing that your gonna die and having to prepare to leave your child is just i cant even put it into words
Taylor Weidler oh most definitely!! I’m with you 100% on that.I feel that way about leaving my family behind.A mother leaving her child I know it must be very very very difficult to leave her child behind.
Ya Manz it has to be so difficult
Phillipians 4:7
She is dying with a smile am alive sad and mad about life I should be grateful
The way jaylene is kissing her mom it's heartbreaking
Yes she is bless have to live your life as if it's your last because no one's the time or day that God will call us home..such inspirational story and may she RIP
@@puffymuffin9064 true
Lord forgive us. Thank you for another day. God bless her baby in Jesus name. Amen.
She’s at peace!!!
I pray things get better for you soon merry ♥️♥️♥️♥️
I tried to fight the tears, but couldn't when seeing that young boy. My heart cried for this beautiful bright child.
She didn't predict it- she was going to that party come hell or high water- she held out. She was that strong. Her son is going to be amazing, not that he isn't already. To Ellie's Husband. You are a fighter, a warrior, and an amazing person to have loved to greatly, and to have lost. She is never gone, only out of sight. My husband is my caretaker, leaving him one day is my greatest fear. I hope if it happens though, that like you, he knows how grateful I was...and how much I love him. Forever and Always.
"Goodbyes are only for the people that see with their eyes, but for the people that love with their hearts there are no goodbyes"
Amazing❤🙏🏾
Ria B I don’t like how there is 666 likes so I’m liking it so it’s not that number anymore.
666 is not what we have been programmed it to mean....just a simple reminder to keep our thoughts and intentions positive...to be grateful for each other and our Blessings✨🙏🏾✨
Goodbyes are for everyone and they are final . There isn't anything a person can to stop these. I pray you have more good days than bad and more happy than sad
🖤🖤
Waterworks!
no parent should lose their child.
no child should lose their mom.
no husband should lose their wife.
my heart goes out to this entire family. such a beautiful video. RIP Ellie. thank you for touching us all. 🙏🏼❤️
👍
What about no child should lose their dad
Or no wife should lose their husband
I got ur point though
Ratcoon no kid should lose their dad, but that’s why I put parent so it could potentially be the dad in the situation too
@Sir Bang-a-Lot yea, go back to your retirement home, creep
yeah but God is a cruel dick with a noose around your neck threatening to char you for infinity if you don't see him as amazing for doing this.
I admire how she accepted her departure. It leaves me with mixed reactions. I cry as I smile 😥😊
Just imagine when we had to go to the otter side someday, knowing a good friend like Ellie is there greeting you, how comforting it is
When the dad starts crying...I can’t 😭😭
it’s heartbreaking 💔😭
He truly loves his wife Ellie
Doctors are legal Killers, doctors kill people legally, doctors kill people by the law, doctors kill his mom, all the people believe doctors are God. Go through much pain being killed by the doctors. The doctor set the date to kill her. I am a researcher on photodynamic therapy, that is using rare earth doped nanoparticles, injected into the blood, circulate around the body, it's a caused of cancer, not treat cancer, she was killed by the doctors.
"Be happy, be kind, be joyful, because this may be your last day" this hit me so hard
Words for wisdom and more.
The fact that this kid ,little Jalen goes to my school and asked me to be his Valentine a couple of days ago. The fact that he had to grow up without a mom it just breaks my heart 💔. It just hits different you know. 🥺😭
@Jase he’s good we are still friends, never went past that. He has a new girlfriend and they are happy
@@brooklynsofyasamaniegoervi995 Good for him, that girl is a lucky little girl. He seems like such a sweet little boy.
@@brooklynsofyasamaniegoervi995 how old is he now?
I always wondered how my mom felt dying 3 days before her 26th birthday and leaving me a 7 year old without a father behind. This brought tears to my eyes. I managed I'm 28 years now, it's been a bumpy road still is but I'm pushing through with no family or whatsoever. Looking at her son, how energetic he is and the amount of love he is receiving, he will sure make it big. I wish him all success ❤️❤️
No grandparents, aunts, uncles or cousins? Who raised you after your mother passed away?
.
@@carolhutchinson7763 my mom left me in the care of my step grandmother (her step mom) who is very sweet but has no voice over her kids, so I grew up being abused and passed from one family to another back and forth. Ended up being homeless but still managed to complete high school. I started working at age 19 and helped my step grandmother with bettering the home condition only to be kicked out and called an outsider, I mean I am. It just a lot I don't think I can write everything here. They don't owe me nothing, I owe myself a better future and hopefully build a family of my own one day.
I am so sorry.
My mother was raped and died giving birth to me. I had no father to take care of me. I ended up being adopted by a nice family when I was 3. I grew up not enjoying any of my life. When I was in middle school I made friends with the daughter of our school counselor, I grew a deep personal relationship with Mrs. Reynolds. In 8th grade, I was having intense suicidal thoughts and depression. So I talked to Mrs Reynolds. She told my parents (who had no idea that I was struggling with my mental health.) They found me trying to kill myself. I was admitted to a psychiatric ward. I really have to thank my middle school counselor. She saved my life.
@@ellebekker6307 aww man I'm so sorry 🥺💔 your life has a purpose and I wish the universe will be more kind to you❤️

I love how she told her child the reality, she wasn’t going to live to see him graduate, or have kids. She was just true with him. It gave the child an idea of what’s going to happen, and she was gentle. That’s what I call an amazing mother. She lived an amazing life and inspired many people. RIP Ellie.
My mother has had cancer 5 times, currently going through a pill form of chemo. Her hair’s growing and she’s starting to gain her energy back. Videos like these make me hold her a little closer and tell her I love her one more time before bed. Thank you Ellie for sharing your story. I love you mom 💕
That's amazing! Cheers to your mom and more happy years with her!
I cried my eyes out. There is nothing like a mothers love for her child❤️ She was an amazing person.
Yes😢
Mads Derrico yes
I did too. This is very painful for me to watch 😢😢😢😢
Yessss goodness 😍
When he said “she’s been the best mom so far to jalen, how are you gonna raise a son without a mom” lord I cried so hard. All of my love.
shay Roberts and she said he was like I dnt even kno wher to start, ain’t nothin like a moma, I’m cryin my ass off rite now
that made me think a crazy thought...I would buy him one outfit for every year of his childhood. then my mind went to how the dad is gonna know what clothes to buy him. That's where my mind went. oh so heart breaking.
This woman was such a beautiful person. Even in her last days she still made those around her laugh. RIP Ellie i hope to some day be as strong as you.
This made me cry so much! Her sweet son and when her husband cried saying how do you raise a boy without her mom. The pain on her dad’s and mom’s face. All shall be well with your son
Who else was only half into the video and was already balling 😭😭
Me. I'm a guy and I told my slef I'm not you g to cry and now in a mess.
Im not Even half way and i can’t breathe.
Not even half 😭😭
i’m not even a fourth into the vid and i’m balling
I was only a couple of minutes in and started crying
When the lady in blue said, “Goodbyes are only for those who see with the eyes, because for those who love with the heart there are no goodbyes” I literally fell apart!!!
Ellie 💜
❤️❤️
I cried so much! This story was so poignantly heart-breaking, yet reflective. May the Lord grant her mother, father, her son Jalen, husband, and extended loved ones grace to go on. She undoubtedly left a legacy! Be loving, caring, and happy, enjoying every second of life. R.I.P., Ellie, we will all see you one day, as you said it yourself :)
Forgive me every body but I just feel jealous rite now. She is so loved it's so beautiful, I'm nearly 42 stage 4 cancer, 3 children and I feel so scared and alone. She is me hero. I hope you are OK Jallen
I'm so sorry to hear this. Maybe we can pray for you. I have metastatic cancer but no children.
Lord I have no reason to be ungrateful, please forgive me. ❤️
Amen
You made me want to pray too. Heavenly Father forgive me for feeling sorry for myself. I have been blessed and I thank you. Please bless Elle and accept her into your presence. Amen

The people who hit the dislike button couldn't see through their tears 😭😭 God bless her
Suh Dude they probably disliked it because it made them cry, not because they didn’t like the video. Some people just become extremely emotional when hearing about these situations.
Suh Dude dont worry about those people because they are just agent of devil.
They are trolls who survive on reaction, don't give them any.
It’s ‘robots’ like when you have to do those catcha thingumbobs
@@janebeth1844 😂😂😂 i learned a new word tonight. Thank u 😊
I lost my Mother in August 2011...and there will always be that hole in my heart! But I had an Amazing Mother who I am grateful to have known and been my Mom! I could have not asked for a Better Mother as mine, Angela Marie (Donatis) Manzi from Syracuse, NY. Miss you Mom....but your personality lives in me and through my Life!
May this family be strengthened by their faith, and keep Pressing Onward with the Good Fight of Faith! God Bless you all ...so sorry for your Loss!
Wow, I "stumbled" upon Ellie's story this morning, just when I really needed to find it most. I've been going through some very difficult times lately, & wasn't sure where to go next. Ellie was an amazing woman, w a very amazing family. So amazing, that I find myself completely jealous of all the love & support she is surrounded by. Which makes me feel ashamed, because she is dying of terminal cancer, on her 40th birthday. And everyone who loves her gathered together to give testimony about who Ellie is, how bravely she lived her life, and how much she loves them all. Especially he only child Jayden. The bond between them is beautiful to see, yet agonizing to watch. The pain of leaving her son behind must be horrendous, yet she tells him without any hesitation, that she really isn't leaving him. She will be there in spirit, and through Jayden's memories of her.
In this harsh and punishing world we now live in, it can be almost impossible to live w even the smallest scrap of dignity and courage. Yet, Ellie left this testimony behind, to remind us ALL, that life, even in sickness and pain, is such a blessing. A blessing we should all be grateful for, and to NEVER take it for granted, or squander it, because our time here on earth is so short. Yet, after we pass, we still have forever to be together.
As soon as her husband started crying, I balled, I literally broke down soo hard.
deciphermy soul same, it’s really hard for me to cry but I just felt tears falling down my cheeks 😞
Me right now
The father is "Crying" but there is no tears
@@catharineburke4494 people grieve in very different ways. i think you should consider that just because his process is different, that doesn't make it any less genuine or valuable.
Wow. This hit me hard. This tells me to look at life differently. Rest In Peace ✌️❤️
Amen 🙏🏼😭
Agreed❤
Rip beautiful 💖💕
Rest in peace Ellie.
Tiny Pictures same. I’m done taking things for granted. I regret everything I’ve said to my parents, fighting back, “hating” them when I didn’t get something.
my mom named elisabeth ppl used to call her elli, mother eli , mom elli, aunt elli, sister elli and she passed away too from breast cancer 5 years ago, this video bring so much memory and happiness and tears, RIP ellie and my mom elisabeth thank you everythng
It doesn’t matter how many times I watch her story. I break down and cry she was a very strong woman. Ellie has inspired me to live my life and don’t complain about things we can’t fix. Things can be way worse. RIH Ellie 🙏🏾
I couldn’t imagine losing my mother... jaylen is so so strong 💪🏾
My mom passed away in 2012, and I miss her very much and think about her everyday. :( You're so lucky to still have your mom.
He is very young, but in the future he is going to miss her and cry.
This mother prepared her son for her death. She showed him it was a part of life and to not be sad but instead celebrate. Sending blessings to the family 🙏🏽
I wish my dad could have prepared me for this...but unfortunately nobody knows when his/her time has come to an end. He passes away and left me as a grownup (w/my siblings) and lets say my life spiraled for the past 3yrs. Ellie, you have done a marvelous job raising Jalen and instilling in him what you’d want him to be in life. God Speed, Ellie.
I cried through this entire video. I'm always so worried about my health because I have 3 boys. They all need me. Children are not supposed to be without their moms 💜 Bless this family 😔🙏🏼
This is by far the saddest video I’ve ever seen and one of the few videos that’s made me cry. A mothers love is truly something beautiful and her relationship with her son is truly beautiful to watch. I hope he has a great future and I hope she is resting easy.
“Got chemistry exam tomorrow”
Me: crying and watching at 12 in the morning.
OH my god me too. I have an important business appointment tomorrow and 12:20 am I am watching this and crying
Hope you slept enough.... 😊.... And remembered all the answers.
Meeeee right noww at 1:06 😭😭
Same
sis i literally have a chem final tmrw and im crying watching this video instead of studying
What a beautiful story!!! I am dying from terminal bone cancer thats now spread to my adrenal glands and I'm also in end stage liver failure. Drs have given me 4 to 6 mo left to live. I pray I go with half as much dignity and grace as Ellie did!!!! Hope to meet you when I get there Ellie!!!!! God bless Jaelen!!!
@furious nick Thank you so much....and God Bless Ellie!!💜💜💜😘😘😘
Hey. Sorry to hear. Just enjoy life while it last sweets.. We all love u
@@barbietingz5379 Thank you so much 😘
@@sandymcinalty8427 How are you taking it though?
@@barbietingz5379 I'm doing well. I've got God on my side. He is the GREAT PHYSICIAN and He knows exactly what He's doing!! Some days are tougher than others but as long as I keep my mind strong I'll be good. Nd to be honest, when God does call me home, I won't be upset 😁
I know this is a 6 year old video but it’s my first time seeing it. My sister, 51, has terminal pancreatic cancer and yesterday I found out she only has weeks to live now. What a beautiful video. 💜☝🏼
I'm sorry about your sister. Be strong and take care.
@@silentnight9655 💜
don't let grief from losing your loved one destroy you - honor them and show them how much you loved them by going out there and living the best life you can, love others with an open heart, try to do the right thing and help others in need ❤️
The filming crew was peeling onions the entire time...my eyeballs are still sweating 😥
The way he just can't stop kissing his mother is literally ripping me apart
I know...
I don’t think I’ve ever cried this much. This woman is so amazing, her son is incredibly strong and they have such a wonderful way of looking at this situation. During the whole video I was bawling my eyes out, as if I’d lost someone myself, even though I never have. I guess that’s the power of this video. These people made a situation that I’m scared of even imagining into something wonderful. I can’t believe how amazing these people are. This story will forever be in my memory.
My friends mom died from colon cancer at 39. We visited my friend and his family for a little vacation and the next month she was gone. Even though she wasn't my mom I still felt the pain through my friend. I can't imagine what this would be like if it were my mom.
This is one of the saddest stories I’ve ever heard. This just goes to show that good things don’t last very long. I hope god stays very close to this family. This is probably one of the best moms to ever exist in the history of mankind. Every like is one prayer for this family.
You don't have to be rude about it, just keep scrolling.
Plus im not asking for likes
Mariyah Michelle Yeah, it's sad, but also inspirational! 😢🙄 I gave you a like/"thumbs up"! I like your profile picture, btw!
I think the way Ellie went about it was the best way. Telling her son, preparing him 🙏🏾 some children don’t get the chance to say good bye so❤️ RIP
I didn't. I watched my mother suffer for 3 yrs just to lose her 3 weeks before I turned 11. She was in the hospital her last few days....I never got to say goodbye. And here I am at 44 paralyzed by the pain..
Yea 😭😭
Its always hard to see ur loved ones suffer and let them free from this world...cannot express that agony...
TT T I know of this woman who’s mother died of cancer. She was a preteen and her mother never told her anything. She died never explaining anything to her daughter. It has left her devastated and rejected
My beloved grandfather passed on February 9…rest in bliss, Ellie
Such a beautiful story..My heart ♥ goes out to Jalen and Elli.May God bless you.
Ro
I have never seen anyone pass away with so much love , hope, joy and dignity. She made her son understand that love lives on past death. That she truly will always be in his heart. Fly free Ellie.
Lily Xero did she died?.
@@liliana933 Yes she did.
Lily Xero how do u know?
@@Victoria-lu6dr It says so in the documentary, at the end. It says she died two days after the part where all her friends and family say bye to her. You kinda should watch the documentary till the end.
Lily Xero time stamp?
Dear God, please hold this family in your loving hands 💐
Amen 🙌🏿🙌🏿
Amen
Amen!!
ItsyagurlShay J Amen 🙏🏽
Amen🙌
In tears watching this. Recovering in bed from a brain surgery to remove a tumor while I await the pathology results. Went down this rabbit hole of legacy videos as I consider making videos for my sons if I get bad news from the pathology. When she mentioned having friends come over and clean I can't express how much these small acts of kindness mean and the constant stream of support I received. You don't realize how loved you are until you get the bad news.
I never usually cry at these videos, but this one did it. If you are a kid watching, please tell your parents that you love them
