You are correct. I had read an earlier post that said he had 23,000 and still needed 12,000. Sorry about that.
However, I am still sending mine, and encouraging others to send theirs as well. The higher his record is the longer it will take for someone else to break. I am actually very relieved to know he met his goal, and got to see it happen. His cancer is in stage 4 and they sent him home to be comfortable :( This honestly just breaks my heart. We never know what each of us are going to face in life, and seeing things like this makes me believe there is still good in people.

It's the best 45 cents I've spent in a long time!!!

He has Cystic Fibrosis not cancer

Consider it done. Mine will be filled with prayers as I know all of your will be.

That's right. It's the "stage 4" that made me type cancer I just lost an aunt a few years ago to lung cancer (in stage 4)
Sorry I'm not stating the facts correctly, but my heart is in the right place.

I am sending a card. Sent this to my sisters and co-workers. I work in a children's hospital so definitely cheering this little guy on. Thanks for sharing.

Card going out today. So sad when a child dies or is terribly sick.

I will be sending out a card today. I will also send a note to my grandson's teacher along to see if I can get them on board as well. God Bless this child and his family. My heart goes out to them.

It was on the news this morning that he reached his record but requested that cards keep coming in!
