Ida is a 27-year-old mother with terminal breast cancer. For this year's Norwegian Pink Ribbon campaign, the organization decided to give Ida an extraordinary gift from someone who means everything in Ida's life — her daughter, Solveig. "I used to have a six month plan, a five year plan, a ten year plan," Ida says. "But now Plan A is to have a good day, there is no longer Plan B."
In the tear-jerking video below, Ida's husband, daughter, family and friends head to the movie theater where an unexpected surprise is waiting. Ida heads down the theater aisle holding her daughter's hand tightly, and before she knows it, they're seated in the very front row and staring up at a screen. She has no idea that her daughter has been plotting and planning to reveal the movie she's about to see… By the end, I was a mess of tears, and so was Ida's entire family. I can't imagine what it must have been like to be sitting in one of those seats.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which is an annual campaign to increase awareness of the disease. Please take a moment to watch this video, and please SHARE it with your friends on Facebook.
