When I first watched this, I didn't realized it was based on a true story but I was still very inspired by this. However, when I found out this was in fact based on the real life story of gymnast, Ariana Berlin, I was inspired even more. I also sort of feel a connection because after my grandmother suffered an injury and her health deteriorated in the hospital from infections etc. her doctor told her she would never eat or drink again. We told her that although we couldn't promise her she would, he couldn't promise she wouldn't. He's not G-d. Ariana's doctor told her she would most likely never do gymnastics again. I'm not sure why doctors feel it's okay to crush their patients' hopes and dreams but it's especially horrible that they tell it to their faces! Doctors are great messangers - but they are not G-d. I think that Ariana overcoming all odds is very inspirational and the movie was very heartfelt.
