    I got this in an email today and thought you might all be interested in sending him a card. I usually don't pay much attention to emails like this in case they are a hoax but it can't hurt to send a card his way just in case.

    Hey Everyone!

    Here is a SPECIAL REQUEST for a Little Boy named Noah, whom is in his final stages of a battle with cancer. Lets see how many of us can fulfill his request and send him a Christmas Card ASAP(His family will be celebrating Christmas for him this week). We had sent our cards out the other day.
    This is the message that was announced on WMUZ 103.5 Thursday morning. Lets all see what we can do! You can purchase Christmas cards for as little as 49 cents and 99 cents, if youre on a budget.

    I guess I was kinda hoping it was a hoax. Im sending him a card or maybe even a little gift. We all should.

    I just read his page on Carepages, about how totally excited he is, over receiving the cards, and presents! And about how people are actually showing up at their house, wanting to say Hi to him! Unbelievable! :shock:
    I seen somebody had posted this on Facebook, and I just assumed it was one of those hoaxs. I'll be getting a card out tomorrow! And praying for him and his family. Just heartbreaking.
    Thanks for posting this, Judy!
