If anyone is skeptical, it can be verified through Snopes.com here: http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/medical/biorkman.asp If you'd like to do something nice for someone else, please take a few minutes this weekend, and send this little guy a card.

Thanks

Thanks for the support fishy. I hope it takes a big rig US Postal truck to deliver all the cards for this little guy. Such a thoughtless request from him. I would hope a strong showing would lighten his and their spirits a little bit.

DAMN IM IN TEARS MAN!!!what kind of things is noah into by chance?cuz i can draw up a lil something for him in the card he might like?

So cableguy, I posted the verification to a friend and they received a horrible message about bloody hook stories ???? What's up with that my friend ???

I don't follow ? What's a bloody hook story?

I took your bait, hook line ,and stinker, anyone here try to post cableguys verification to someone else and see what I mean ??????????? Not very nice cableguy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no idea what you're talking about fish I just copied the exact same link and pasted it into a completely different web browser, and it takes me straight to the Christmas Card page. I even sent it between two of my own email accounts, and it works fine. Are you sure you copied the link correctly?

I apologize to you cableguy, missed the medical on the website address. Sorry !!!!!!!!!!

That will cost me about 50 p to send, take less than 60 seconds to write and I am right next to a post box so why not? Poor lad

no worries. Lets just get this little guy a ton of cards. The facebook response has been tremendous. My cards in the mail

I must admit I checked it out before posting today and if anyone is questioning it's legitimacy it is 100 percent for real. There are no hints at sending a $5 note or anything such like. It really is just to make the boy feel great and it is such a miniscule thing to do to send a card.

At UR there are quite a cross section of countries that post here. I am sure the more varied the post marks too, the more exciting it will be for him! I used to get so excited seeing a letter from my relatives in NZ!!

Got a card that said on the front it was from 'over the seas' to make it look all exciting LOL

Thank you guys for the responses. It looks like this has been very successful This is directly from the Facebook page:

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 family is celebrating Christmas next weekend (November 13th and 14th) and Noah loves Christmas cards. Noah's mom is asking for Christmas cards for her son.

Please take the time to send a card or letter to:

Noah Biorkman
3480 Petoskey Way
Milford, MI 48380

(ADDRESS CHANGE! SEE ABOVE!)

(If you already sent your cards to the previous address that was listed (in South Lyon), Noah will still receive it. There is so much incoming mail that the family wants to even it out.

To All who know Diana and Scott Biorkman and Noah:
Noah, died yesterday(Nov 22). He was peaceful and his last few moments were with her. As many of you know, we had participated in fund-raisers and golf outings for him and over the last few months, Noah had become well known because Brandon Inge hit a home run for him and in the last few weeks, they had received over one million Christmas cards from all over the world, as they celebrated Christmas early. There are still thousands of cards still to open and count.

Thank you again to any who participated, and helped make such a big, loving statement to this little boy and his family. I hope it was at least a little comfort in such a rough time for them.

The effort continues on the Facebook page for other children.

RIP Noah
