5-yr old, Hannah Garman, who was diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme, a rare and incurable brain tumor. She has been given 12 weeks to live and is currently in her 7th week. She was going to be the flower girl in a wedding in May, but was diagnosed A week after we asked her to be the flower girl. This is especially sad because her mother died 2 yrs ago from breast cancer.

Right now she has lost most of her motor skills. She is confined to bed
And cannot really do anything or play with the gifts she is getting from
people, but she LOVES getting cards - she has gotten so many from people she does not know and just loves to have grandma read about the people who send Them and see their pictures, and is so proud of all her cards. Her room is just filled with cards.

When asked what she wants for Christmas she said she wants to see how
Many Christmas cards she can get. Many people have passed this wish along to their churches, prayer groups, friends and family. There are school groups where children are making her cards. People are including pictures so she can see who it is that is sending her the card.

If you would like to help with her wish, you can send a card to her at:

Hannah Garman
704 Orchard Rd
Lititz, PA 17543

THANKS! Feel free to pass this along to your own prayer group, church,
school, etc. Let's see if we can have the cards coming in big postal bags
for her this Christmas, since it will be her last holiday.

P.S. You can also send my email to anyone you forward this to, if they
Have questions. sheripie@hotmail.com

I showed it to my 8 yr old daughter. She said she would like to send a card. I think her plan is to make one and send it out.

Thanks

Unlike many of those chain emails, this one is TRUE. I checked it on snopes.com and they confirm the story. So, please send a card to this young lady.
