Robin Williams' Last Message to Vivian Waller

Robin Williams sent hopeful message to cancer suffering woman.
(CBS) A terminally ill woman in New Zealand got a private video message from Robin Williams just months before his death.
New Zealand's Sunday Star-Times reports that Williams recorded an inspirational message for 21-year-old Vivian Waller, who is suffering from lung, bowel and liver cancer, after learning that one of the five things on her bucket list was to meet him.

"Sending all my love to you, Jack and Sophie," Williams says in the video, referring to Waller's husband and their 1-year-old daughter. The couple married in February, accomplishing one of the other items on the list she made following her diagnosis in January.

"Mark this off your bucket list," Williams continues in the video. "What's going on? It's all right, it's all right, it's all right. I'm just channeling Matthew McConaughey. Much love to you, baby."

He ended the message by blowing a kiss to Waller.

Williams took his own life last week, at the age of 63.
(Stuff.co.nz) Before taking his own life, actor Robin Williams sent a message of hope, support and "love" to a terminally ill New Zealand woman.

Vivian Waller, 21, is in an Auckland hospice suffering lung, bowel and liver cancer.
When Waller, nee Fittall, was diagnosed in January she drew up a bucket list that had five wishes on it: to get married, celebrate her 21st birthday, see her daughter Sophie celebrate her first birthday, travel to Rarotonga and meet Williams.
Waller was too ill to travel to the United States to try to meet Williams, so one of her friends reached out to the comedian and he recorded a short video clip which he emailed to the family a few months ago.
Waller's husband Jack said his wife was thrilled beyond belief with Williams' heartfelt and personal video message.
The message was short but very sweet: "Hi Vivian . . . it's Robin Williams here saying 'hey girl what's going on down there in New Zealand'.
"I'm sending all my love to you, Jack and Sophie . . . knock this off your bucket list."
Williams then breaks into brief song, explains that he's "channelling Matthew McConaughey" before signing off with - "much love to you baby".

Jack has yet to discuss Williams' suicide with his wife, as it's a topic he finds too difficult to broach.
Currently in care at Hibiscus Hospice, Waller is still fighting but, says Jack, is resigned, after a series of failed attempts, to the fact that chemotherapy is no longer an option.

"Viv struggles with a lack of energy and it is quite difficult for her to concentrate," he said. "We are just enjoying the time we have together. We take things a day at a time."

He decided to open up about the very personal message from Williams because "we love him, we want to show people how awesome a person he was".

The Wallers married in February, a month after finding out Viv was terminally ill.

Fundraising from around the country meant they were able to pull together a wedding and honeymoon in just 10 days. A couple of months later Sophie had her first birthday.

The only thing Vivian couldn't cross off her bucket list was the trip to Rarotonga.

Williams, 63, took his own life last week after years of battling depression and anxiety. He had also been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.
