Everyone with a healthy child please be thankful.

Mom has every reason to be proud of that girl!

She maximized her life. A true inspiration. RIP princess.

😢 This brings tears to my eyes! I lost my precious 34 year old daughter recently. She had literally beaten cancer 17 years before, she never knew an adult life without the pain and scars and pitiful limitations her body went through from remnants of at least 23 surgeries to remove the tumors and reconstruct her beautiful little face. She was 17 when she was diagnosed and for the next 17 years although she "beat" the initial cancer diagnoses, she underwent 23 surgeries in various places on her body. Although weakened from pain and effects from radiation she stayed positive and active. She pursued her dream of getting her Bachelors degree in Art, which was her passion and her God given talent, just 3 months before she was to graduate (which took her 17 years because of having to drop classes when she had surgeries) just 3 months before realizing her dream...she sadly and abruptly died in her sleep right next to her devastated fiance! 😢😢 We still dont know why as she was in remission for the past 14 years. We just accept that it was her time. Her University gave her her Bachelors degree posthumanously which meant the world to me and sponsored an Art exhibit that featured only her Art. She was so talented and I miss her like the air I need to breathe! 😇

Heart failure is terrible. She had her whole life ahead of her…

Her heart may have been weak, but the rest of her was rocksolid. I am so sorry for your loss.

In tears. Life is cruel. Glad her mom has that video of her walking across the stage. That's priceless.

Mom, you did a great job.. What a beautiful daughter she was...

I pray for the donor's family also. Someone donated the heart of their loved one, so Sienna could have those 10 years, and walk in her graduation. Amazing!

Mom you allowed your daughter to get her final wish walk the stage,you could have said no but you knew this was important to your daughter. God bless you and your family baby girl earned her wings

What a beautiful child. She was so brave and strong.

Heart was weak but her will was strong. May she rest well🙏

You should be proud! She was beautiful, smart and determined! You did a great job, Mom!

Her heart was weak but she and her mom were so strong. Im glad they let her walk, but man, i feel for her mom

To see that smile on her face and know the pain she's going through breaks my heart

I'm damn proud. Rest in peace, Sienna. Praying for the mom and family's strength and healing.

The fact that she worked so hard to get to this point, just for her to not make it to college is really upsetting. Be thankful everyone ❤ Edit: Guys Ty so much for all of the likes and I’m not saying that she didnt peruse her dreams, I’m saying it’s so amazing for her to finish high school, like she wanted. I’m just saying that it’s good to be thankful and to know you probably have it easier than a lot of others 🩷

How sad , she was so cute and had her whole life ahead of her .

Mrs Chum, I am sooo sorry your daughter died. I am sooo glad she was able to get her degree and graduate. I cried for Sienna Stewart and for your family. RIP. You all are in my prayers.

A tragic but very beautiful story. What a legacy this young lady leaves to show other people how to be strong. Condolences to her beautiful mother and family. God bless.

The mother’s strength is also impressive. This must be devastating, and she is still able to speak about what was happening and how her daughter pushed through. I hope she realizes that her daughter isn’t the only strong woman in this story. Prayers for you both.

I'm so sorry that she passed away, but the mom should be so proud of her that she made it through school and she did graduate. Rest in peace Sienna.

My friend died a little after his graduation. He had epilepsy and had been sick for a while. I was proud that he accomplished his goal which was to graduate!

Life is so unfair this broke my heart she had her whole life ahead of her rip Angel

My goodness how devastating! She looked good in the hospital. Goes to show you never know what ppl r facing or when that time will come. Beautiful, strong, and courteous girl indeed. She fulfilled the big one and walked that stage! She did it mom!

Fly away into paradise beautiful girl. Rest in peace. 💐✝️🙏

Your daughter was a fighter, now she is a shining star. RIP Sienna you will not be forgotten. 💜

My 14 year old brother has a similar heart condition. I pray for him everyday. Praying for her family😢

Sienna clearly had a spirit that could not be defeated. Her spirit and her will were incredibly strong. May she rest in peace, and may her memory be a blessing to those who knew and loved her

Lord please place your loving arms around this mom and her family! 🙏🏽

Blessings to the Family!!!! What a beautiful young lady!!!!

The most genuine sweetest people deal with the most terrible scariest things I hate it man

That girl strenght came from her mom wow she is a rock

Please be kind to everyone you never know what milestones they have accomplished or pain and hardships someone else will be enduring to get through this day

love I feel your pain I just lost my son 😢He was 19. It’s very hard to live without him but I find comfort in with god. And knowing he is free from pain and in gods hands❤

No idea what I got so emotional hearing her mother say she was a “tough cookie”. I teared up, the way she said it. It was so firm and solid but you get the image of something sweet you feel so much compassion along with joyous/painful emotions hearing her talk about her daughter. Truly my heart goes out to her mother, everyone in her family, also her entire graduating class. Her time was limited but she made sure to show so much strength and perseverance on a night that every kid growing up dreams about.

I'm so glad your daughter had as much of life as she did. I had a 5-year-old cousin that had a heart attack and died on his front lawn! My brother died at 5 months old with only three chambers in his heart! The doctor said "In 10 years we could fix this, but in 1961 he couldn't!" I'm so glad your daughter got to enjoy life and you got to enjoy your daughter's company for as long as the both of you did!

Bless that child 18yrs 🙏🏽

So sad for mom. Daughter was a strong force of nature. She can be very proud of her .

This is so sad.... feel bad for the grief the mom is experiencing

Sienna's heart may not have been strong, but she was. May Sienna rest in the sweetest of peace in the arms of the angels.

What strength and determination she had, may she Rest In Peace ❤

The courage, strength and resilience displayed by this young lady is a great reflection of parents. Praying for her Mother and family.

She lived more dear and full than many live. She was definitely brave!

No parent should ever have to bury their child! I feel for her family and friends!

Poor girl, she was so beautiful and strong !! Condolences to the family 😢

Sending deepest sympathy to the family and friends! I’m so proud of you her! Rest in peace baby girl! ❤️🙏🏽

Hugs for this Mama. Happy she was able to walk the stage and graduate.

This is so difficult. A heart transplant recipient to die of heart failure. You fought hard to help them keep on living. Did she have an internal defibrillator? This really made me sad.

R.I.P. sweetheart and condolences to the family.😔😔

Her daughter accomplished so much in such a short life and it was so sad that she collapsed and died weeks later due to heart failure.

This is sad...She passed away happy being able to graduate!!! Prayers to her family!!! 🙏🙏🙏

Daughter got that strength and resilience from mom.

So proud of her and I pray she's resting peacefully 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️

What a brave little angel! She fought right up until the end. May God bless and comfort her family. 😥

I'm so glad that her mom let her walk across the stage and receive her well-deserved diploma. Sending love and prayers to her family ❤

She was so strong. God bless her and sending prayers out to the family. R. I. P Queen 🙏🙏

She couldn’t leave without walking that stage for herself and for a memory to leave her mom. My heart goes out to this mother. 😢Stay strong mom

She was so beautiful. RIP sweetie

A strong mother with a beautiful angel.

I got chills watching her strength to just graduate from High School. She was so inspiring! Blessings to her Mom and family & friends for strength and peace!!

That young lady had a lot more HEART and MIND than most graduates today.

Sienna, you made the most of the 10 years you had the transplant heart. You didnt take it for granted. You could have lost your life before your school year even begin, but you should everyone you could overcome it. May your journey never be forgotten

She was absolutely beautiful 😢 as a parent of a healthy little girl, this hurts to see. She wanted that diploma and deserved that diploma. So glad fought thru and experienced that moment before passing.

Sending Prayers 😢🙏🏽💔

AWW. This is so sad... I am so sorry you and your baby had to experience such trauma... May God bless you and give you strength...

This is so devastating. May Sienna rest in peace ❤❤

So very sad. But she died just having reached one of her goals. Her mom should be proud.

You are a great mom you let your daughter walk that stage. As hard as it is to lose a child just keep remembering that you gave her a fulfilling life as much as possible

My father had a massive heart attack in his sleep when I was 24 years old. I was also 9 months pregnant with my son. My water broke the morning of his funeral. My son was brought into this world at the same time my father was lowered into the ground.

May Sienna's beautiful soul rest in heavenly peace 🕊️💐

She had the determination most people dream of having ... fly high our beautiful angel 🤍

Thank you for sharing your daughter memories with me. Im praying for your strength and joy.

Man I got tears n my eyes rest up queen congratulations 🎉rih

Life is so unpredictable and delicate...this beautiful young girl lived her fullest one day at a time as we should.🕯

Ma'am, your Daughter is strong because of you. Your strength and courage shows right here as you are speaking. And just as much as she made you happy; you made her so happy to be able to walk across the stage. God Bless You! I'm praying for you and your family.

So sad. ❤Rest in Peace. Prayers for her Mom, family and friends.

It was heartwarming to see Sienna so heartily enjoying an apparently home-cooked meal, while in hospital. A tangible representation of love, between the cook (Mom?) and the clearly appreciative diner.
