It was a night to remember for 16-year old Olivia Bin-Cheski.

Olivia suffers from a rare myopathy that affects muscles in her leg, arm, and heart.

But the brave girl hasn’t let that stop her from living her life to the fullest and partying like a rock star. To help her do just that, the “Make a Wish” foundation granted a wish for Olivia, her very own super “Sweet 16” party.

The party took place at the Merion Caterers in Cinnaminson, New Jersey. 165 friends and family members came out to make Olivia’s wish come true.

After her big night, Olivia’s mother Jen sent NBC10 a heartfelt email. It reads:

ON BEHALF OF MY HUSBAND JOHN AND MYSELF, WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE MERION AND "MAKE A WISH" FOR MAKING OUR DAUGHTER'S WISH BECOME A TRUE REALITY. THE NIGHT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN ANY MORE SPECTACULAR THAN IT WAS!

Happy Sweet 16 Olivia!
