A little angel just got her wings…

Lila May Schow just turned five years old. And like most five-year-old little girls, she enjoys wearing frilly dresses, tutus, Elsa from “Frozen,” and the color blue.

But Lila May Schow may have something not every five-year-old little girl has. Lila May Schow has cancer.

Suffering from terminal Neuroblasma, a nerve tissue cancer, since she was two years old, the strawberry blonde child is pale and wan, with deep circles of exhaustion under her eyes. But that doesn’t stop her from smiling at simple joys that make her happy…

Because french fries are the best…

Lila May is a veteran of six chemotherapy treatments that have wrecked havoc on her full head of hair, but she has continued flashing her dimples.

When she turned five, her family threw her an extravagant “Frozen”-themed birthday celebration, complete with a make-believe prom and a faux wedding, knowing this birthday could very well be her last.

Her fifth birthday party saw her dressed in her Elsa costume, blowing a fluffy blue-and-pink heart bedecked cake, and bonding with her favorite Disney character, Elsa.

Her family, knowing she would never attend prom or even meet a boy, fall in love and get married, staged a make-believe prom for the little girl, and even a make-believe wedding, with her teary-eyed father standing in as the groom. After all, he would be the only man in her life now.

Lila May also had one last wish: to dance onstage with American Country Music star, Luke Bryan, whose “That’s My Kind of Night” single happens to be the little girl’s absolute favorite. In fact, her mother, Heidi Hall reveals Lila May starts to dance each time Bryan’s songs are played on the radio.

Softhearted Bryan called her and spoke to her personally over the phone, and even sent over a personalized video message.
