Lesly is a mother of three and a three-time cancer haver living on borrowed time. All of her treatment options have been exhausted, and the only thing that might save her is a bone marrow transplant ... which she can't afford.

What do you do when you have just two months left to live? When you have a small child, just 6 years old, and your oldest daughter is newly married and a mother herself? How do you say goodbye to your family?

If you're Lesly, you go to Disney World.
