Colby Curtin, a 10-year-old with a rare form of cancer

Colby was a movie fan, Lisa Curtin said, and she latched onto Pixar’s movies because she loved animals.

On June 4 her mother asked a hospice company to bring a wheelchair for Colby so she could visit a theater to see "Up." However, the weekend went by and the wheelchair was not delivered
June 9, Colby could no longer be transported to a theater
Pixar officials listened to Colby’s story and agreed to send someone to Colby’s house the next day with a DVD of "Up,"
“I’m ready (to die), but I’m going to wait for the movie,”

Pixar employee came to the Curtins’ home with the DVD.

He had a bag of stuffed animals of characters in the movie and a movie poster.

Colby couldn't see the screen because the pain kept her eyes closed so her mother gave her a play-by-play of the film.

Colby died about seven hours after seeing the film.
