If you're on Facebook, you've probably seen the requests from a little boy for Christmas cards...this week. Noah Biorkman was diagnosed with Neoroblastoma in 2007 at the age of three. His parents want him to be able to live out his last days as he should, as a little boy...excited about Christmas. Noah and his family have requested Christmas wishes in the form of cards and have already received an overwhelming amount of cards and gifts. They will be celebrating Christmas this week,
This little boy has been through so much and to be able to make him smile and show support to this family, who's hearts must be breaking, is the least we all can do.
Here's a link to a news report on this story of Noah Biorkman.
Cards may be sent to:
Noah Biorkman
1141 Fountain View Circle
South Lyon, MI, 48178
Santa will also be joining Noah this weekend courtesy of the South Lyon Fire Department.
I've found this to be the perfect opportunity to once again explain to my children how fortunate we are. They watched the video of Noah and immediately sat down to make a card. This is not just me talking. They saw and connected with this sweet little boy. Their hearts were opened and their generous spirits shined through. This will be a Christmas to remember. A beginning of new traditions that go beyond ourselves and our own home.
Thank You Noah for allowing us to share this Christmas with you.
