SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- A Bay Area family is getting a Disney wish come true thanks to a local radio station.

ABC7 News was at KOIT radio as three-year-old Caliah Henry and her parents were surprised with a suitcase full of "Frozen" toys.

Caliah's grandmother had called the station trying to win Disneyland tickets for Caliah, who's recovering from severe burns from a pot of boiling water. KOIT gave them four tickets.

"It's amazing. It's awesome. I love it. I am thankful that she is healing progressively," said Taryn Westcott.

Caliah has recovered well. Most of her scars have disappeared.

She and her family also got a tour of the radio station, but Caliah was too shy to get behind the mic.

Disney is a parent company of ABC7 News.
