This 5-year-old and his great-grandpa posed in a magical #Up-themed photo shoot, and our hearts can't handle it. 😭🎈 "[Elijah] is borderline addicted to Up and has been for several years," Elijah's mom and photographer Rachel Perman said. "It's the only thing he draws and colors—the house with balloons—and the only books he wants to get at the library, and the only toy he wanted when we were in Disney World last year." ❤️ Tap the link in bio to see more photos from the shoot (including his great-grandma as Ellie!) and to read the full story.

"I became a Cancer Mom days before Lou and his identical twin brother, West, turned one year old. Lou had been on a steady decline. He'd stopped nursing, eating, and eventually sleeping, whereas West was fine... What happened next comes back to me like pages in a flipbook. I stood on the corner, my nose in Lou's sweaty hair. I was to meet the pediatrician in the ER, but I couldn't move my feet. I knew the minute I took a step forward my life would be divided into Before the Walk and After the Walk. I wanted to run backward. Somehow, I walked up the block... Lou was diagnosed with choroid plexus carcinoma, an extremely rare form of pediatric brain cancer. Until Lou's diagnosis, I had known nothing about cancer, having only been around it peripherally. I'd liked pictures of other mothers and their sick children on Facebook, adding my own x's and o's after #hashtags like LittleWarrior and MamaStrong. But now my baby was the warrior, and I was definitely not Mama Strong. I felt like hashtag Get Me Out of Here." September is #ChildhoodCancerAwarenessMonth.

"Tom: They’re talking about crashing this plane into the ground. We have to do something. I’m putting a plan together.
Deena: Who’s helping you
Tom: Different people. Several people. There’s a group of us. Don’t worry... Where are the kids
Deena: They’re fine... They’re asking to talk to you.
Tom: Tell them I’ll talk to them later... It’s up to us. I think we can do it.
Deena: I love you.
Tom: Don't worry, we're going to do something..." These were some of the last words Tom Burnett spoke to his wife, Deena, from on board United Flight 93 before it crashed into a field in Pennsylvania during an attempt by him and fellow passengers and crew to take back control of the plane.

After Bill and Dawn York lost their son, Joshua, to suicide in July 2018, they wanted to help raise awareness, so they started the Facebook group Suicide Prevention Rocks, which encourages members to paint rocks with inspiring messages and hide them in public places so that other people can find them. "The amazing artwork I see and heartfelt messages I read each and every day are often the lift I need to get me over what sometimes feels like a mountain," Dawn said. ❤️ Tap the link in bio to read more about the inspiration for the group and find out how you can get involved. #WorldSuicidePreventionDay
