Zach Sobiech's Mother One Year Later

“ you don’t need to find out you’re dying, to start living” hardest quote from that movie

[alejandra]

My cousin died of osteosarcoma when we both were 11. This movie just reminded me of her fight. She got her right leg amputated but she was so happy. She always had a smile on her face even on those days that she could hardly move. She thought me that life is beautiful and that little things are the things that matter the most. God is wonderful and he gave the opportunity to be her best friend in those days. God bless you all

Zach taught me that life isn't about what people think of you it isn't about living or dying it's about happiness because when your smiling everyday counts and when you look back you notice those were the best days of your life you don't know if your gonna die young or die old so make your days count (:

dear sister I can understand your feelings because I have lost my own son Saurabh from this same disease in India.

[ayushsinghal]

[meganjohnson]

He was such a great kid
He didn't deserve to die at least he's in a better place

Zach was an amazing young man and i feel blessed to have known him how ever little it was.

Although I did not know Zach, I get chocked up each time I hear his song. He was an inspirational individual. We all need to take a moment and learn from him. If we did that then maybe a lot our our troubles would go away.

[sarahouma]

This is so heartbreaking, kept crying through out the interview. You are an awesome
mom

[alicebrown]

The thing that makes me so envious of this young man and his fantastic parents is that his family is so loving. He would have been a great dad himself because of the 'manual' he learned from. Many of us are not that lucky, as children and as parents. It's a great miracle and mystery. And I'm jealous of him.

RIP ZACH! Such an amazing young man & family!

A friend of mine had worked with Zach's aunt and said she remembered hearing about his passing. I remember hearing his song shortly after he passed and didn't know his story til I seen the previews for the movie and was shocked and sad to hear he died
