A Request

Noah Biorkman and he and his family are celebrating Christmas early this year. Noah is 5 years old, in hospice and most likely wont make it to December 25th. He has been fighting Neuroblastoma for 2 1/2 years and is loosing the battle against cancer. His one request is to receive lots of Christmas cards before he dies. Therefore I am asking that each of you send him a card so he can have the best Christmas ever. Noah said an angel figurine ornament was his favorite because it reminded him of where he’ll soon be “In heaven, and I’m going to be an angel.” His mom said she is asking to send $1 in a card to the family and they will donate it to the University Of Michigan neuroblastoma research center and the Michigan Make A Wish Chapter.
Cards can be sent to:
Noah Biorkman
1141 Fountain View Circle
South Lyon, MI, 48178

Merry early Christmas
Laura, Travis, Sammy & Gavin

This is a true story, but the family is overwhelmed with mail and has asked that folks please stop sending cards, gifts, etc. 80,000 pieces of mail a day. They celebrated Christmas last weekend, Nov. 8th. It is a sweet story though.
