Hope springs eternal for Andrew Miller, an eight-year-old boy from Conesville, Ohio, who is battling two rare and aggressive forms of cancer. With his birthday approaching, his family and friends are hoping the young boy will receive 1,000 birthday cards on or before his ninth birthday on December 12. 

Rebekah Unkefer of Warsaw, Ohio--a neighboring community to where Miller resides-- is assisting with the birthday card campaign that will shower Miller with love. Unkefer is a freshman at Cedarville University studying nursing.

The cancer battle has been difficult for the Miller family. Making it even harder is that it's not the first time one of their children has battled cancer. Their oldest son is now fighting cancer for the third time. In spite of the various health issues the Miller family has faced, they continue to fight because they know "God is with us." 

To support the Miller family, and to offer encouragement to Andrew with 1,000 birthday cards, please send a birthday card directly to them at their residence: 

16905 Township Road 287, Conesville, Ohio 43811
