Student Council first heard about Jacob from a Today show news story. Jacob is a 9 year old who has a rare form of brain cancer called neuroblastoma. Unfortunately, Jacob's cancer has spread and his prognosis is not good. It is unlikely he will live through the holiday season. Jacob loves two things: Christmas and penguins. His wish is to receive homemade Christmas cards. Student Council decided to pair Christmas with penguins and send him a package of love from sunny South Carolina.
If you'd like to wish him a Merry Christmas, send your homemade card to:
Jacob Thompson
C/O Maine Medical Center
