Sending Holiday Hugs

I saw a post on Facebook last night about a little boy named Jacob Thompson.  He is 9 years old and has cancer.  His mom posted that he is at the end of his journey and they don't expect him to make it to Christmas.  He loves homemade Christmas cards and she was asking for people to send them to him.  Of course, I had to make one.  This absolutely breaks my heart.


I chose this set because the snowmen are hugging.  I think everyone needs a hug now and then.  I hope that they will bring a smile to Jacob's face.  If you would like to send Jacob a card, here is the address:

Jacob Thompson
Maine Medical Center
22 Bramhall Road
Portland, ME 04102

The Recipe:
PTI Holiday Hugs
SSS Falling Snow Stencil
Stickles Crystal

Thanks so much for coming by to look.  Your kind comments are always appreciated.

  5. Thank you for making Jacob this awesome card. I live in Maine and one of our local TV stations showed Jacob and his dad and had a wonderful story about his wish for Christmas cards. A family friend or relative of his goes to our church and we have been praying for him.
