The Dying Wish of a 4-Year-Old Boy




A couple of weeks ago, SendOutCards distributor, Sharon Kruep, had the founder of a charity company join her organization. The company raises money for families of sick children. The founder of this company told Sharon about a family that were participating in their program from Missouri, the Thurmans.

The Thurmans have a four-year-old son named Colton who was recently told he has 6-12 months to live. The founder of this company asked Colton's mother what they can do for him, and her reply was that her son didn't want candy or toys, or even a trip to Disneyland; amazingly, he just wanted cards. It just so happened that Sharon was involved in the greeting card industry, and she passed this story our way.

Colton's desires to receive greetings cards over anything else shows us how important it is for us to continue our crusade and that we truly can change the world one card at at time. We want to help make this final wish come true for Colton and hope you'll not only take a moment to send a card or two yourself, but that you'll help everyone you know do the same. Here's the address where cards can be sent:

Colton Thurman
34 Blue Bird Lane Unit 4C
Lake Ozarks, MO 65049

Thanks for helping us spread some joy to this young boy during the remaining months of his life.
