Through Gloria Castillo's battle with muscular dystrophy, she was able to keep her spirits up by watching the Houston Texans.

The 30-year-old Castillo is unable to speak now, and she isn't doing well, but she has one last dying wish: To meet Houston Texans star J.J. Watt.

"She's been a fan of him ever since he came on board with the Texans team, and that would really uplift her and make her happy," Gloria's father said.

Doctors originally told Castillo's family she wouldn't live past 17.

"She's gone in and out of the hospital, but she's a fighter," Gloria's father said.
