| I know this is off topic but it is not a scam nor a cut and paste of some web myth. It is the nephew of a friend of a coworker.
Eight-year-old Zachary Wyman is back in St. Jude's for more chemo therapy because his Acute Lymphblastic Leukemia has returned. To keep his spirits up, the hospital and his family are trying to come up with things to keep his mind occupied. He loves to get mail. They've gotten him a map with some pins so he can plot where his mail comes from. Aside from the well-wishes, the aim is to get all 50 states and maybe some foreign countries too. And in the process teach him about geography and other places in the world. I cannot think of a nicer or more geographically diverse bunch of people than the garden web wintersowers. So if you have a few minutes, get a postcard of a landmark from your state or city and send a little message of encouragement to a very sick kid. Help make Zack smile.

| Kimka, I wasn't sure whether to respond or not and take a chance on moving this down - now that I find it moved over here I won't worry, should move more slowly at least and I don't think the address will disappear from view. I sent Zach a card with a coastal postcard tucked inside yesterday. Hope he receives from all states, and that his hosp stay is as comfortable as possible! |
