I just happened by here and happened to see this thread.

This is so sad. I'm sending a holiday card now.

Even though he doesn't know us, at least he'll be able to look at the many cards he's received and enjoy them.

Thanks for giving us a chance to do something thoughtful.

I sent him an angel card and a Christmas-y snowy scene card. Thanks for posting this Dej. I hope we help to make the little guy's final days a bit brighter.
