I got a email witht this story in about 4 or 5 months ago. I cried then and i still get a tear in my eye now reading it again.
I find it hard to believe that story is true. It sounds a lot like random spam emails that ask you to forward it to 10 other people within 5 minutes or you'll have bad luck for 7 years (I guess that might explain some of my recent poker results,...

).
Edit: Found this:
