Dalton Dingus is a 9-year-old boy from Salyersville, KY, living with stage 4 cystic fibrosis.
He has been sent home because there is nothing else doctors can do. They have only given him a couple of weeks to live. He told his mom he is ready to go because he is tired. He wants to beat the Guinness World Record for the most Christmas Cards. The record is 35,000. and Dalton currently has 23,000+ cards.
You can help Dalton break the record by sending him a card at the following address:
Dalton Dingus
H.C. 62 Box 1249
Salyersville, KY 41465
Just a card, a 45 cent stamp, and a little of your time to make his Christmas wish come true.

My bag full of pens and cards i have walked the streets of my block and my local town collecting cards for this angel, so far i have mailed 376 cards. i pay for all the cards and postage myself i just ask people for a moment of there time to make this sweet boys dream come true. some places are busy of course of the holidays so i ask if i could leave cards and pick them up at there closing time i have spend countless hours walking and driving to get cards which to me is such a blessing to be able to do this selfless act to make someones dream come true. god bless this little boy.
God bless you, Dalton, you little point of light. In just a few days time you managed to unite the world, even if it was just long enough to make out a Christmas card to you. That is an remarkable feat for one so small. I have sent 8 cards, and I had everyone I know send you one, I went on facebook and sent messages out to everyone…and got a lot of people to do it also. xxoo all over your face.
You are one awesome kid !
love, Colleen
