Dear Eliot,

you’re video brought me to tears. i myself am a 16 year old girl and i take what i do have in life for granted. seeing you’re film for the first time really puts the world into perspectve. you were a strong little man who deserved all the happiness and love you got in your short life, youre father was extremely proud as is the rest of the world after seeing your short life.
you’re parents are an inspiration to the world. well done and rest in peace little man.
-to your parents, you inspire me more than any celebrity. you are the real heros of this world.

I just watched the story of Elliot on TODAY SHOW and was so touched and intrigued. My son Alexander passed away at age 11 months. When he was first born the doctors told us he had Trisomy 18 but they weren’t 100% sure. When I saw Elliot he resembled my Alex so much. We were fortunate to have Alex with us for 11 months and was also fed through a feeding tube and struggled to survive each day. We miss him so much and cherish each day we had with him.

Hello, I am 16 years old. I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. Elliot was not just a child, he was truly a gift from God. Your story has been truly a large part of my life. Elliot’s story has taught me that everyday is truly a gift, you never know when God will choose to take you, and the question is “Will you be ready?” God has truly blessed you with Elliot and even though he is not with us today, he is waiting for you up in heaven and he will be there when you get there. I can’t say I know how you feel because I do not, but I do know that the pain you feel is overwhelming. The reward the world gives is no match as to what it can take away. I want you to know that God has truly used you in a way that is unimaginable. May God bless you and be with you forever more.
