for a photo slideshow of 4-year-old Hannah Garman 
of Lancaster County, Pa., who was diagnosed with 
a rare, incurable brain tumor in October. 
Hannah’s mother died of cancer two years ago. 
Hannah has a Christmas wish and her community is 
spreading the word: Send her a card.

 From Hannah’s 
<http://articles.lancasteronline.com/local/4/231612>local newspaper:

Lights flashing, they drove north through the 
darkness Thursday, a caravan of about 70 fire 
trucks, ambulances and police cars headed toward 
a small, red-headed girl in a party dress.
Hannah Garman, 4, quietly watched them pulling 
into a parking lot. She was lying on a litter 
just outside an ambulance, her pink shoes poking 
out of a white sheet. Hannah, who lives in Lititz 
with her dad, brother and sister, recently was 
diagnosed with a fatal form of brain cancer. Her 
mom, Christine, died from cancer two years ago.
Hannah’s wish for Christmas this year was to get 
lots of cards. That wish went out in an e-mail 
late last week. Her family believes it was sent 
by someone who knows them but they are not sure.
It would be an understatement to say that Hannah’s wish has been granted.
Within days, cards began trickling into the 
Lititz home of her grandparents, who are helping 
to care for her. The trickle became a stream, 
then a torrent, then a flood of hundreds of cards 
from all over the world, as the e-mail spread over the Internet.
School children made cards. Churches sent them. 
Families and kids and everybody and his brother, 
from Canada to Mexico to Singapore, has gotten in on the action.

When county firefighters heard about Hannah, they 
thought it would be nice if they could send her some cheer, too.

Merry Christmas, Hannah. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
