Hartford Girl, 12, Dies After Battle With Pulmonary Disease

The 12-year-old had been living in a walk-up apartment building with her mother, father and younger brother - a medical hardship once Sejla, diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension last year, labored to climb the stairs. The Kuljancic family, with the help of city and state homebuyer programs, closed on a Goodrich Street house a few weeks ago and painted the largest bedroom a bubble-gum pink, Sejla's favorite color, while the girl kept tabs on the progress from her hospital room in Boston, family members said.
