WKSR:
Noah & Family Say "Thank You"
Posted on November 19, 2009

The story of Noah Biorkman spread across the country like wildfire recently. Noah was diagnosed with cancer and his parents decided to celebrate Christmas with their son November 8th. They requested that people send Noah Christmas cards because Noah likes opening mail.

The family was shocked at how fast the story spread. WKSR ran the story a couple of days. It was picked up from the station website and posted on Facebook where the story grew legs and made its way across the nation. Over a million cards and gifts have poured in to the families Michigan home.

In an update from Linda Lee with WYCD-Detroit, Noah's condition has taken a major turn for the worse. Lee tells WKSR that Noah’s time is very short. “The family is pleading for privacy and time to spend with Noah,” says Lee. The family has asked that everyone stop sending cards.

WYCD has set up a web page with pictures from Noah’s early Christmas. Photo’s can be viewed by going to www.wycd.com and clicking on the “Thank You from Noah” web link.
