NICE News: Pixar Grants a Wish
I received two emails this morning, one from Amy and one from Donna, with a link to the same story, so I knew it must be a good one. I couldn't even get half way through before the tears started streaming down my face. It's hard to get through, I admit, but I suggest you all check out this article from the OC Register about how Pixar was able to grant the wish of a young girl dying of cancer.

What an amazing and heartful post! I too was in tears as I read what Pixar did for this seet little girl.
Oh, this made me so happy to read! Thank you for sharing this nice story!
Thank you so much for this story. It was a joy to read.
oh god that was so sad!!! i would have not want to be that employee that had to go and bring her the movie. they were brave, i would have just cried the whole time!
Heart-wrenching! But so sweet. I feel for the girl, the family, and yes, the Pixar employee.
i'm sitting at my computer with tears streaming down my face.
such an innocent request from a child...
It's so nice to see a company like Pixar do something like this. Maybe it will inpires others to do their own kind acts.
I think it was pretty cool of the neighbor to decide to try and call Pixar, and to persist until she was able to reach someone. That's a million-to-one shot, and a lot of people would give up without trying to make it happen!
Pretty unbelievable. Thanks for sharing this - I blogged about it to.
Oh boy. I read that article this morning and BAWLED. Almost made my boy cry too.
Thanks for sharing this, Melissa... I wouldn't let myself read the story until I was home with no people around, because I knew I'd cry! What a touching story...
