Aya Kito

Aya Kito was a girl who suffered from disease called spinocerebellar Degeneration. She was diagnosed at the age of 15.
"The disease causes the person to lose control over their body, but because the person can retain all mental ability the disease acts as a prison. So in the end she cant eat, walk or talk."

I just got done watching "1 Litre of Tears" just now. I've never cried so hard as I did while watching it. It's a story about Aya Kito and her struggle with SD. Aya died at the age of 25 b.c of it. But she kept a diary called, " 1 Litre no Namida((in Japanese))
A Diary with Tears or A diary of tears((In English))"
I've been trying to look for her diary in English yet so far only one I can find is in Japanese. Which is okay for me b.c I can kind of read in Japanese myself.
Her life was made not only into a movie but also into a drama tv show over in Japan.
Here are the links to the movie and show.
