It all started with a little girl named Elena Desserich. She too was a victim of a rare form of brain cancer (DIPG) and she was five years old. Within months she lost her voice and soon afterward experienced partial paralysis. Still she kept fighting and inspiring those around her with her courage. Soon her story reached tens of thousands of people nationwide and her artwork, termed as "iconic" by other artists, became a fixture in hundreds of homes and hung on the wall of her local art museum.
