Actress Angelina Jolie visited a young cancer patient, at the invitation of Nicole Kidman. Jolie, 30, who found out about the little boy from Kidman, went Tuesday at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering hospital in New York to visit Dylan , who's suffering from a rare form of cancer.

One month ago, Nicole promised to a six-year old child to bring Angelina Jolie to the hospital, so he could meet her.

Kidman visited Australian Dylan Hartung twice in hospital, where he is receiving treatment for a rare form of neuroblastoma. When the actress asked the little boy what are his wishes, he told her he wants to beat cancer and meet Angelina Jolie.

And so, Angelina made his wish come true, presenting herself to the hospital, where she stayed more than an hour chatting with him.

Hartung's mother writes on his website: "He spent the whole time being really relaxed and chatting to her at a million miles per hour, like he had known her forever.

"She was so lovely, very down to earth, just like Nicole Kidman is. I think Angelina was very impressed by Dylan, particularly at how mature he is for his age. She was everything he imagined her to be like and he was so smitten with her.

"Dylan thanked Jolie for her visit with a ring - in return she gave him toys and an autograph for his Tomb Raider poster which reads, 'To Dylan, with all my love and respect".
