MI Boy Who Has Brain Cancer & Leukemia Wants...

Please Boost! MI Boy Who Has Brain Cancer & Leukemia Wants Get Well Cards for Christmas

Eleven-year-old Joey Caretti and his family are facing the stress of treatments for his second battle with a rare form of brain cancer, as well as leukemia he developed as a result of treatment for said cancer, this holiday season. 

They aren’t asking for money or donations. All this brave kid wants is a pile of cards for Christmas. A local woman began a drive to get Joey 1,000 cards for Christmas, but I think it would be incredible if we could get more. Having a serious illness is hard on anybody and having social support can be a powerful boost to the self-esteem and mood of the person who was diagnosed. I know tumblr can be incredibly generous, even in the hardest times!

Please consider participating and boosting this! Cards are easy and relatively cheap to come by! If you can send a card, please do so and if it really is not feasible for you, please reblog! Thank you so much!

If you want to participate, send the cards to:
Joey Caretti 
c/o 22671 Eddy Drive 
Macomb, MI 48044
