Cards for Maraachli Family - Need Your Help!!!

Hi ladies! I hope I can get some help with this, because not only would it make my friend, Tristan's day, but it will hopefully make a family with a terminally ill child feel a little better. 



Tristan is a very young man who has a huge heart. I don't remember exactly how I found his blog, it may have been through someone here, but we have been keeping in touch, and he would like to send cards to a family who has their child at Children's Hospital in St. Louis which is close to my home. I promised Tristan that if he could get the cards sent to my house, I would make a special delivery to the hospital and take pictures of them getting dropped off. I can't guarantee that I can meet the family but I know where to take them to make sure that they get to them. 

If you can find it in your heart to do this, it would mean so much to so many. I have copied and pasted the details from Tristan's blog below: And if you could tell others about it.... I know it is last minute, but anything is better than nothing, right? Thank you all!!! 

Cards for Maraachli Family

Hi I am asking for you to please join me and make this boys parents a card.
Emily email me today and my card is the only one she have recieved so far. 

I saw this in our newspaper (copy/paste) A Canadian couple transferred their terminally ill toddler son to a Catholic hospital in St. Louis after an Ontario court ruled that doctors could remove the breathing tube keeping the boy alive.

I think his parents need to know he is in our Prayer so I added him to my Youth Prayer group.

I really would like if you join me to make his mom and dad a card and if you will can you please have the card mailed to the address below byMarch 30th ? Thank you!

I will send a card, Emily. I'm thinking maybe a "you're in my thoughts & prayers" type card? That is so sad... and very sweet of you to get involved like this.

Hugs...
