Send a card.

I've just been touched by the story of 5 year old Noah Biorkman of Michigan, who is in his final stages of cancer. His family is celebrating Christmas with him next week and what did he want for Christmas? He wanted lots and lots of Christmas cards. So as I'm going out this evening to pick him up one from my family, I hope all of you do the same. This is not something that can be done with an e-card or a simple email. Go to the store and buy one or print one out from your computer. Then send it to him.

To Noah and his family, here's a poem for you. Merry Christmas and may God be with you.
To a smile
A laugh
Sunlight strolls in
And it's alright
Christmas all year
Any year
Any day
A celebration of life
It's all about love
Being helpful and kind
Seeing to a need of Earth
Blessings unto Heaven

UPDATE FROM THE CARE PAGES FOR NOAH..
Noah's Updates
Wow!! Thanks! Please STOP!!!!
Wow! The outpouring of love and concern for Noah is just amazing! Scott and I never in a million years thought that so many people would want to send Christmas cards to Noah. However, please note: We did already celebrate Christmas LAST Sunday -- November 8th.
PLEASE STOP SENDING CARDS AND GIFTS!!!!
Noah is very ill. He is not getting out of bed and it's time for Scott, our families, and I to concentrate on our son. His time is very short and he needs us.
Scott and I would like to say thank you so much for the support and continued show of love. However, we are asking that everyone please stop sending cards and gifts.
Also, everyone please post the stop order on Facebook and any other websites or organizations that you belong to. We need the peace right now.
Thank you for your understanding in this request.

I will be sending a card.. I just told my hubby about it and he is also sending a card along with his fellow soldiers!!!! My heart goes out for the family.
I feel for Noah and his family. How wonderful of you to let us know of this.
Worthy cause, well done.
Thanks for the article, and for the info on Snopes.com. I'd never heard of the website before, but I'll look at it now!
What a simple heartfelt request. Thanks!
