Dalton Dingus' Dieing Wish
Started By
9 year old Dalton has Cystic Fibrosis and has recently become increasingly sick. Doctors believe he has only a few weeks to live. He recently was allowed to come home to be closer to his loved ones. His last wish is to beat the Guinness Book of World Records for receiving the most Christmas cards. As of Friday afternoon Dalton has 23,000 cards, the record is 35,000.
A friend typed this up for a couple of other sites and I thought I would post it here as well. They are also asking us to put our city and or state on the card so that they can see how far the cards are coming from.
Sends cards to:
Dalton Dingus
HC 62 Box 1249
Salyersville, Ky 41465
Here is the FB event for it.

He was cut off for counting cards for the world record at the new year.

I don't know if he is or not, but in <a href="http://www.worldrecordacademy.com/collections/most_Christmas_cards_received_Dalton_Dingus_breaks_Guinness_world_record_113171.html">this outdated article</a>, it was estimated that he received over 700,000 cards. :-D (as of Dec. 30th)

Do you know if he's still collecting cards?
