Christmas Cards For Noah Biorkman



Noah Biorkman was diagnosed with neuroblastoma in 2007, when he was 3 years old. He went into remission, but then relapsed in September 2008. His family is not expecting him to make it to Christmas Day.

Noah and his family asked for Christmas cards to be sent to help their family celebrate Christmas on November 8. People around the country responded and sent more than 100,000 cards.

His parents recently posted the following request of Noah's Carepages website:

Wow! The outpouring of love and concern for Noah is just amazing! Scott and I never in a million years thought that so many people would want to send Christmas cards to Noah. However, please note: We did already celebrate Christmas LAST Sunday -- November 8th.

PLEASE STOP SENDING CARDS AND GIFTS!!!!

Noah is very ill. He is not getting out of bed and it's time for Scott, our families, and I to concentrate on our son. His time is very short and he needs us.

Scott and I would like to say thank you so much for the support and continued show of love. However, we are asking that everyone please stop sending cards and gifts.

Also, everyone please post the stop order on Facebook and any other websites or organizations that you belong to. We need the peace right now.

Thank you for your understanding in this request.
