I saw this on the news tonight. Like to give Disney credit where credit is due!!
After a four year old girl's struggle with brain cancer, her mother buried her and placed a little Fantasia elephant statue on the grave. "Purple Hippo was her best friend in the entire world. It was with her from the time she was diagnosed, at 10 months, to the time she passed away."
The statue was stolen.
Disney no longer makes it, but found the mold and is having another made, just for that mother. "It doesn't take the pain away from the original being stolen. I would've wanted that one. I still want that one to come back. But this is a symbol to me of the good that's in the world."
Bravo, Disney!
(I hope the new one doesn't get stolen.)
