      awesome.
      
      Noah's parents are sharing every single card with him, and it has been reported that if he has to go to the hospital for a treatment or something, all he talks about is getting back home (the hospice) so he can have the next batch of cards read to him. he is overjoyed by all of them. imagine how he will feel knowing someone made a card just for him.
      
      p.s. his parents don't want presents but asked that (if you want) you include one dollar with your card, which will go directly to a foundation fighting this horrible disease. i am sure Noah feels comforted knowing that people are sending dollars on his behalf. when i signed my card, i signed it with my name and my bunny's name, and drew a cute little bunny going "oh hai"...just a suggestion for people who have pets, if they want to include that. i know it would make Noah smile, the little sweetheart.

   In addition to the links above I recommend you all check out the Hubs Authored by Luciendasky and Crazdwriter.
   
   These two beautiful ladies have tirelessly been promoting Noah’s wish on this forum and to bring attention to not just Noah, but every child suffering from the ravages of cancer. 
   
   Their work is spectacular and heart wrenching.

    Cosette has written a VERY informative hub:
    
    http://hubpages.com/hub/Christmas-wishes-for-Noah
    
    And for anyone wondering, Noah's family has asked that if you want to send him a present, send $1 instead... they will collect the money and donate it to University of Michigan's research in neroblastoma, little Noah's disease smile
    
    
    So glad to see so many people working with this... for anyone who has been checking his mother's updates - there is a new one - you can get to it by going to the above link in the above post.
    
    Firefox doesn't work with that site very well, so you may need to use explorer
    
    
    there is also another article wrttien by Godslittlechild about Noah

    Ms. Chievious gave us a link to where you can purchase cards made by child cancer patients... consider sending one of those

    Also, contact your local hospital or a children's clinic to see if there is anything else you can do...
