With a private viewing of
Up, the movie she desperately wanted to see before she died. When the family realized Colby wouldn't survive long enough or be able to be transported to a theater, a family friend contacted Pixar, who immediately rushed an employee with the movie on DVD to the girl's home. Colby died seven hours after seeing the movie.

In a way, 'Up' is rather symbolic given the situation.

Just another reason why Pixar is awesome. It's cool to see that they are still human enough to care about this little girl. Wow. Sad though.
If you guys haven't seen the movie yet, I would definitely recommend giving it a watch.

I was going to go see it, but I think that all of my friends went without me. If so, I think I'll wait until the DVD is officially released
