Hello, I'm desperately trying to find some people to senda card for a very poorly little girl who has just joined Post Pals, I know a lot of you make cards and little gifts so I thought I would post here.

She is called Sophie and is 2 years old, she has been battling cancer since she was 15 months old and sadly she probably only has a matter of days left. Her family would love for her to get some cheerful post to make her smile

It would be great if any of you would like to make her smile, her address (and her 4 year old sister's Jessica) can be seen here http://www.postpals.co.uk/pals/sophie+a

Cards need to be sent first class and check her page before sending anything.

Thank you,

Vikki

ps)edited to say there were posts a while back in the charity section as they were fundraising to take Sophie to America

  • I know Sophie and her mum, and if anyone can spare some time to send Jessica and Sophie a card I know it will be well appreciated, it is so sad that Sophie has not very long in this world. her family are amazing, they are an inspiration, so kind to others in similar situations. My heart goes out to them.
    You never know how strong you are until you have no other option.
  • I have sent a little something on behalf of my two daughters, Amanda and Claire who would of been 27 today...........
  • I will send something in the morning. My heart really goes out to this little girl I have a niece who is 5 years old this is heartbreaking.
