Hey guys, as we all know Christmas can be a wonderful time of the year. Unfortunately for one child and his family it’s going to be very difficult. I’ve been a member here for a pretty long time and one thing I’ve found is the members here can be some of the most caring and giving people around. I know what I’m asking won’t need a whole lot of explanation but we have awesome people from all around the world here.

With that being said, a child from my area has been given the worst news possible. He has fallen terminally ill and it appears as though he may not be with us much longer. He’s not asking for donations. He’s not asking for gifts. He’s not asking for much of anything. It is his wish however that he receives Christmas cards from around the world. No matter where you’re from please help him feel the happiness he certainly deserves.

I’ve included a link to a news article which will have his story and an address a Christmas card can be sent to.

Wow. Stuff like this shouldn’t happen to a 14 year old. My heart aches for this kid.

We have some friends that recently moved up to the Treasure Lake area and they sent us his info. He will have more than a few cards coming from DFW. So incredibly sad.

I know. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t a bit disappointed in the amount of responses. Oh well. Hopefully people see this and are sending cards and just not saying anything. That would be great.

I thought about doing this.
Never said a word to my wife, but she beat me to it.
Dropping off at the post office now.

Done and done. Being a father (of 3) this shit breaks my heart. Gives me chicken skin a lump in my throat and a cupla tears in my eyes. My 4 year old daughter loves to draw, gonna have her draw up a card for him. Wife and I will be sending one as well.
