16-Year Old Cancer Patient Sings 'Roar'

Olivia Wise had Brain Cancer, and died on Nov 25.

Before she died, she came into a recording studio for her first time and recorded the Katy Perry song Roar. She couldn't walk or stand, she didn't have her full breath or the energy she used to, and she was managing her new pains and new limitations. While her physical condition was rapidly fading, her spirit remained untouched.

Olivia is a fighter and has gone through the fire, in fact, she was going through the fire while she recorded this song, but you wouldn't know it, because she was dancing right through it. She is an inspiration, a champion, and my hero. This is her Roar.

Wow! She had a nice voice! I kinda sounded like she couldn't sing that hard due to her lungs not functioning like they used to.

I watched her Simple Girl and right now I'm crying. It's sad to know that she had so many friends and family and they had to lose her. She is beautiful, from the outside in, and I don't think anybody will forget her.

This is so sad. However, at least she died happy after doing something she loved.

This is so touching... I'm really moved. In the end, she did what she wanted to do, and really, the song sounded awesome.

Oh… I just about cried watching this video. She is such an inspiration to all of us out there. Even when she was dying, she did what she loved to do, and we should all aspire to have at least half of her spirit.
