So I haven’t mentioned it here, but my grandmother was diagnosed with stage 4 small cell lung cancer this year. We lost my grandfather, her wonderful husband of 50 years two years ago after a short battle with leukemia.
All medical probabilities point to this likely being her last Christmas, maybe one more. One of her favorite past times for Christmas is displaying all of her Christmas cards.
So my odd request is for you guys to help flood her mailbox with Christmas cards. She would adore it.
Here is a picture she sent us from her last chemo treatment. Sorry for the pats hear but we are local and she’s been a die hard my entire life. Even had season tickets in the 70s to the 90s.
If interested please pm me for the address. Thanks everyone and happy holidays.

Thanks to all of you guys that sent cards wishing her well. i knew i could count on you guys to help brighten her holiday season.

Hey, we're not as bad as people claim we are.
And I'm super-happy she's progressing too. I love me some good news...
Hi guys , another quick update. My grandmother wants me to thank everyone, but i will do so by sharing the actual message she just sent me. You guys sending her cards really helped a bunch. [Reply]

The truth is, we're a pretty big group, we should do more of this sort of stuff... [Reply]

The pleasure was mine man. I'm glad it lifted her spirits. I'm guessing another Pats SB did too [Reply]
I just wanted to let everyone know that this morning my grandmother passed away. I want to thank everyone here for helping lift her spirits over the holiday. You guys are the best. [Reply]
