It's basic message is that there is a child named "Little Buddy" in Scotland who is dying of Leukemia. His dying wish is to be included in the Guiness Book of World Records, a feat he wishes to accomplish by being the person to receive the most postcards in the world. The notice said *postcards*, not letters. If you wish to honor his wish, send a postcard to: Little Buddy P.O. Box 76 Paisley Renfrewshire Scotland, United Kingdom
