Natalie McDonald,
who appears on page 159 of
Harry Potter and
The Goblet of Fire, was a real person. She was
a nine year old girl from
Toronto,
Canada,who was dying of
leukemia. She wrote to J.K
Rowling asking what would happen in the next Harry Potter book, as she wouldn't live long enough to get to read it. The author wrote back, but Natalie had already died a day earlier. In tribute, she became a 1st year student at Hogwarts, named by the Sorting Hat to Gryffindor- which is the house for the brave. ♥

I found this on tumblr, btw. I'm not sure if the story is true, and I don't read Harry Potter. Either way, I found this touching.
