https://gma.yahoo.com/does-mass-boy-battling-cancer-want-birthday-bunch-215700731--abc-news-health.html?soc_src=mediacontentsharebuttons

Just wondering.  I am.  Sorry if its a dupe.

"A 5-year-old Massachusetts boy battling cancer said all he wants for his upcoming birthday is a box of birthday cards.

Danny Nickerson, of Foxboro, Massachusetts, will turn six on July 25. He was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor this past October -- one of the most chemotherapy-resistant cancers. As a result, he has since stopped going to kindergarten.

The boy gets lonely from time to time, and is always happy to get cards with his name written on them."




Address 2 posts below. His birthday is July 25th. Let's fill up the mailbox post office.


[div]ETA:  Looks like Amazon will ship USPS to PO Boxes for those of you interested.  Let's Make this little guy have a birthday he won't forget.

Off to the store to pick up some birthday cards.

Let's do this!
Link Posted: 7/20/2014 7:14:37 AM EDT
Going to the store to pick up cards, Legos and Super Mario products.

I worked closely with a 16 yo girl who was struck down in the prime of her life by a brain tumor.  To see what her and her family went through still leaves me questioning why these things happen.

My heart goes out to this young man, I pray that he can beat the odds.

Done.

His face on his birthday should make the nightly news.
This is such a good news story of people sending this boy cards, everyone should hear about it.

In on this. Should all of our packages identify we are part of ARFCOM or not?
Link Posted: 7/20/2014 7:30:54 AM EDT
I'm down to kick in a card and some Legos.

Depends on the size of the item. I've received small things via USPS in bubble wrap containers.

This kid needs more than a birthday card!

I hope they have a big enough vehicle to contain the generosity of "Arfcoms Angels"

Looks like they'll ship usps for po box orders. Should be there on Wednesday.
