5 Y-O Noah is dying and wishes for Christmas cards…

[IaNsSyAlNuE]

Noah Biorkman is a 5-year-old boy who was diagnosed with Stage IV neuroblastoma in February 2007. Although he went into remission in August 2007, his family says, in September 2008 Noah "relapsed with lesions in his right arm and right leg," and "after going through six different trials, the cancer continues to spread."

As radio station WKSR in Pulaski, Tennessee, notes on its web site, one of its on-air personalities is an acquaintance of Noah Biorkman's mother and verified the above-quoted appeal for Christmas cards for her son:

Christmas will come early for a five year old Michigan boy this year. Noah Biorkman is battling cancer and is not expected to live much longer.

Noah's mother and WKSR morning personality Ed Carter went to school together years ago. They keep in touch by email. She mentioned the early Christmas for her son in an email to Ed.

Mrs. Biorkman is asking for Christmas cards for her son. If you would like to take time to send a card or letter, send it to:

Noah Biorkman
1141 Fountain View Circle
South Lyon Michigan, 48178

I'll get a card in the mail today.

Thanks for posting the addy. Me too. I was just wanting to warn posters - do put them in the mail and stay away from multilevel marketing groups advertising email cards. I read a report - I think its a CNN ireport that a congressional candidate is supporting the effort to send cards to Noah - but he is an affiliate of a multi-level marketing effort. The report is still being checked out and has not been confirmed.... but forewarned if forearmed: mail the cards.

Bless his little heart and thank you for posting this.
I'll get a card out tomorrow.

Maybe we can make Noah's last wishes come true.

Thank you for posting this. I think it's a wonderful idea.

My niece lost her 2 yr old last summer to this horrible cancer and you just never know how long they have or how long they will be aware of their surroundings.

I'll get my card in the mail as soon as I can.

We mailed one from each of us on the 6th. I read about this on another site. He is a sweet adorable boy.
