| Re: Pixar gives 10-y.o. girl her dying wish Poor little girl. I'm so glad Pixar was able and willing to do something like this. It's heart warming to see some people (and corporations) still care.

| Re: Pixar gives 10-y.o. girl her dying wish How wonderfully caring of John Lasseter and his staff. Stories like these touch my heart and leave me fighting back tears. God bless little Colby Curtin, her mother Lisa, and their family friend that did everything they could to connect with Pixar...and succeeded.

| Re: Pixar gives 10-y.o. girl her dying wish It amazes me at how many people can see big corporations as heartless, yet they do something with such kindness. I salute Pixar for having a heart. |

| Re: Pixar gives 10-y.o. girl her dying wish I just wanna cry now. For a 10 year old to have to endure that is just depressing. I'm glad Pixar was able to act so quickly and I think it's even better of them to downplay what exactly when on. It's not about them. It's about the little girl and how she was able to go having got her wish. Though it's still really too bad that she couldn't actually SEE it.

| Re: Pixar gives 10-y.o. girl her dying wish Wow. It's amazing that Pixar would do something so fantastic. It goes to show how much they care and that they actually have hearts in a business world full of greed.

| As if Pixar weren't amazing enough... http://www.ocregister.com/articles/pixar-up-movie-2468059-home-show.htm A young girl dying of cancer was granted a wish to see the movie UP at her home, just hours before she past away. Pixar flew an employee to her home ASAP with a copy of the movie for her to view. I totally balled reading this! |
