10-year-old Colby Curtin was diagnosed with a very rare type of cancer in December of 2005, and recently she was getting much sicker. Her family tried to get a wheelchair to bring Colby from her home to a local movie theater to see Disney / Pixar’s movie “UP,” because it was her final wish, but there were no wheelchairs available.

A friends of the family began to call every number they could find for Pixar and after leaving a message on a random employees voicemail Colby and her family were surprised within 24 hours by a Pixar team member and a DVD of the movie “UP.”

Colby and her family got a private screening of the movie and a huge gift basket of toys. Poor Colby had trouble keeping her eyes open through a lot of the film because of the pain she was in so her loving mother narrated the movie to her.

7 hours after her private screening of “UP” Colby left this earth. Rest in peace hunny, we’re glad you got your last wish.
