Send a Christmas card to a little boy with cancer
H brought this to my attention earlier and asked if we could send a card. After reading more about it I felt compelled to post here too. I checked it out on Snopes - it's legit.

Noah Biorkman is a 5 year old boy who is dying of cancer. His family is celebrating Christmas next week as he may not live to see it this year. All he wants is Christmas cards.
If you want to send a card, his address is:
1141 Fountain View Circle
South Lyon, MI 48178
Re: Send a Christmas card to a little boy with cancer
I will send a car too!!! But... I'm thinking... what do you write inside?? I mean... if he may not make it to Christmas. What do you say? Not I hope you have a Merry Christmas, or I hope you are doing well, or I hope Santa brings you a lot of gifts, or .... do you know what I mean?? What do you write?? I'm at a loss. I don't want to write "feel better soon" because that makes him think of his illness.
We struggled with this too, but ultimately wrote "Merry Christmas Noah! We hope you enjoy all of your Christmas Cards. Love, The N-----s

That is perfect. Focus on the task at hand. He is hoping to collect a bunch of Christmas cards! So I will write about that.
What a wonderful little boy. I only wish him the best. It's so sad to think of what a five year old boy has had to face. Something harder than what most of us have had to face in our entire lives.
Thanks for posting this. I will definetly be sending a card. I also wanted to add that I clicked on your link to Snopes and it says near the bottom of the page that the family is now requesting cards be sent to an alternate address. The new address is:
Noah Biorkman
