'I don't even know why I clicked on it but I did and that's when I lost it.Calling me a monster or asking why my parents didn't abort me... how in the world can I forgive the people who told me to kill myself?'
'This is my purpose. This is what I'm meant to do for the rest of my life.The Lizzie Velasquez Story' premiers at the South by Southwest Film Festival in Austin, Texas, today.
