EllenNation help us make Larissa's wish come true! We know Mariah Carey lives in NY......Connecticut is not far from her at all! Larissa is a 30 year old battling stage 4 breast cancer. She has one wish this holiday season and that is to meet Mariah Carey. Larissa's story was on Wfsb channel 3 yesterday. Larissa is beautiful both inside and out. She has the best outlook on life. We can all learn from Larissa this holiday season!
Larissa, I really hope your dream comes true! My mom saw your story on the news and couldn't believe it! She's rooting for you too. Thoughts and prayers and tons of positivity heading your way. After all, that's what Ellen is all about and I have a feeling she's seeing just how much you are loved and supported. ❤️
My former student, Larissa, has always been a champion of people with disabilities. Even in high school, when most kids were trying to fit in, she befriended the kids who others shunned, selflessly caring and sharing with those who were suffering and marginalized. She also dedicated her career to helping those in need. She's battling stage 4 breast cancer and now SHE wants something and Damn It, I really want her to get what she wants. What a beautiful thing for someone so selfless to want something and get it.
Larissa is an amazing woman with an incredible drive who has always helped others. She has such faith and hope that is inspiring to so many. She always seems to be smiling whether she's facing good days or bad. She deserves more than anyone I know to meet her idol, Mariah Carey. Please please help make her wish come true!!
Larissa is an amazing, inspirational young women who would like to meet her idol, Mariah Carey. We are trying to get this message to her in hopes that she may find it in her heart to meet this incredible, beautiful woman who has moved so many with her energy and determination as she continues her fight with metastaic breast cancer. Continue to vote in hopes that the right someone will see this video and make her dream come true! This is the season of miracles and dreams come true!
I have cerebral palsy and use a speech device attached to my wheelchair to talk. Larissa has been a great friend who helped me start a business managing Facebook pages. Please help her meet Mariah Carey. She is a fantastic person fighting hard to beat cancer and still helping me and others with disabilities in our state.
Larissa is my older daughter who has always been driven to succeed in everything she did. This year, when she and her now husband turned 30, was supposed to be the best year ever -- she had just bought a house, left her job to start a cutting-edge nonprofit navigating communities with people with disabilities, and was planning an awesome wedding. She has not given up on any of these things despite the devastating news in February that she had breast cancer and, again, in April, after a double mastectomy, learning the cancer had aggressively metastacized to her liver and her bones. SHE HAS ALWAYS LOVED MARIAH CAREY -- posters in her room, concerts, every CD ever produced, all possible Mariah stuff. And Larissa really can sing almost (prejudiced mom talking!) as well as her idol although the chemo seems to be taking a toll now on her angelic voice. If she could get this one wish, I know she will be able to get through 2017 and hopefully many more years after with the same miraculous drive and ability to connect with others as her video shows!!! As her mom who has lived through all these ups and downs with her, and a mom who loves her with all her heart, please make my daughter, Larissa's, Christmas wish to meet Mariah Carey come true!
