Following the news that Robin Williams had passed away early last week, tributes to the late great actor began to flood the Internet. However, one thing was becoming crystal clear, Williams had time for everyone.

Vivian Waller, 21, from New Zealand, was diagnosed with liver, bowel, and lung cancer in January. She made a bucket list of five things she wanted to achieve and according to Buzzfeed, it went something like this:

• Celebrate her 21st birthday
• See her daughter Sophie celebrate her first birthday
• Get married
• Travel to Rarotonga (one of the Cook Islands)
• Meet Robin Williams

One of Waller’s friends contacted Williams and told him she was too ill to travel so Williams sent this video for Vivian.
