Weird, that dust made it's way to Canada too.

Re: Disney/Pixar grants dying girl's wish
People ask me why I love working for Disney. A company that responds like this? What's not to love.

Re: Disney/Pixar grants dying girl's wish
That's the saddest thing I've read in a long time.
Pixar acted quickly and displayed a lot of class. Through their willingness to make her wish their top priority, they allowed this little girl to enrich their lives in a profound way.
I wonder if the hospice company is aware of the extent to which they blew it? They could have been the ones to come through with a wheelchair and heroically grant a girl's dying wish. Someone just couldn't be bothered, I guess.
But then if the hospice company had come through, she wouldn't have gotten all those wonderful stuffed animals. I bet she liked the dog the best.

I wouldn't necessarily jump to the conclusion that the hospice just blew her off. Who knows why they weren't able to help?
