Everyone Is Trying To Find The Kid Who Sent His Dead Dad A Christmas Letter By Balloon
By Dreamer
Stuart McColl, of Dunfermline in Scotland, is on a mission to find the author of a note he found attached to a balloon while out on a walk. The letter, written by a small child, is addressed to "dad," who they go on to describe as being "up in heaven," and includes a list of stuff they want for Christmas.
The letter reads...
"Hi dad, just writing you a letter to tell you I'm missing you and tell you news!"
"I'm sure you know I'm in foster care cause mom is sick and my ear is blocked from Monday."
"Tomorrow we're leaving."
"I really miss school and you. I know are up in heaven but are you safe?"
"Oh ya before I go here's my dream and xmas list."
"My dream is for you my daddy to put under my pillow that you wrote."
"My xmas list: boots/studs, Astros, rebounder net, new Premier League ball, Real Madrid kit."
"Bye daddy I love you."
"The letter was found rolled up attached to a blue balloon on a private field behind Balmule House, north of Townhill."
McColl posted the letter on Facebook in the hopes of being able to find the boy and get him some of the items on his Christmas list.
"This was just too sad to ignore," he told the Dunfermline Press. "I've never done anything like this before but it's a really tragic story so it would be great to do something to help this person who is having such a tough time."
"It's a bit of an ambitious thing to do but the story seems to have touched quite a few people already."
"Everyone's getting involved and we've already had people wanting to donate to get these gifts."
"But we just need to find this child first! They seem to really like football that's for sure!"
"It really is the dream to find the person who wrote this note. It's quite a unique story so hopefully someone knows something."
