While this story may have to do with Pixar’s new film Up, they’re more like the Incredibles for doing this.

The Orange County Register has written a story about how the computer-animation giant isn’t above helping out on a person-to-person basis.

When 10-year-old Colby Curtin was on her deathbed, after fighting a rare form of vascular cancer, Pixar employees brought a DVD copy of Up, which she wanted to see before she died.

“When I watched it, I had really no idea about the content of the theme of the movie,” said Colby’s mother, Lisa Curtin. “I just know that word ‘Up’ and all of the balloons and I swear to you, for me it meant that (Colby) was going to go up. Up to heaven.”

Colby passed away only hours after seeing the film. But it’s good to know that with all that money, Pixar still hasn’t forgotten what has made it big: having a heart.
