Let's help this kid out
I'm not sure if anyone saw or heard of this, but I'm posting it everywhere hoping more people will know about it and help the kid out. Plus, I know alot of you on here have business cards you can spare.
My friend, Theresa, who is going to school in Las Vegas to become a nurse, informed me of this 10 year old boy named Brandon Rayner that she had a chance to take care of in her pediatric rotation. Brandon has been diagnosed with leukemia and is currently undergoing chemotherapy and is hoping for a bone marrow transplant soon. While this may sadden many going through this ordeal, or stop others from living a normal life and doing things they love, Brandon has not let it stop him from following his dream: to own the Guinness Book of World Record's record for most business cards. According to my friend he is trying to collect 500,000 business cards before September 15th and when she left his room last night, he was up to 308,000. If anyone reading this would like to help out Brandon in his goal, please submit any business cards you may have to:
Brandon Rayner at Sunrise Children's Hospital
Attention: Pediatric Oncology
3186 S. Maryland Parkway
Las Vegas NV 89109
Please do not send duplicate cards. They can be from the same company but they must have different names. It's not too late, let's help this kid out.

itd be cool if s2ki members met up and brought all their business cards and write a letter and have it signed by everyone who met up and sent it out as a package. I think itd be a nice way to show support to him and his family
