OREGON (KGO) -- A special surprise for a little girl fighting a serious illness. Lily was covered by a pile of puppies!

The images of the exciting meeting were shared on Facebook by a charity called "Pile of Puppies."

They wrote in a Facebook post "Lilly may only be 10, but she had wisdom of an 80 year old."

They also wrote that Lilly's father had died a year before she was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder but that Lilly, her sister and mother "are truly a force of light and positivity."

In case you're wondering... "Pile of Puppies" is a non-profit based in Oregon that brings puppies to cheer up chronically and terminally ill children.
