19 Year-Old Literally Lives For Basketball

Nineteen year-old college freshman Lauren Hill

Nineteen year-old Lauren Hill has just weeks to live, but she still gets up at 5:30am for basketball practice.

She can't even do most of the drills anymore, but she still tries: "Because I feel like I'd be a quitter. And I don't like being called a 'quitter.'"

The Mount St. Joseph University freshman's dream is to play in a college game before time runs out.

That game is one week away. Normally, there would be 50 people in the stands for such a game. Next week will be different. The game is already sold out - 10,000 tickets. In one hour.

The coach has even come up with a new play - Lauren's Layup - and looks forward to the crowd cheering her on.

Next to her love of basketball, Lauren's biggest passion is raising money for pediatric brain cancer. She's begun a charity, The Cure Starts Now, where folks can donate.
