According to a message that regularly resurfaces on Facebook, seven year old cancer patient Amy Bruce will soon die if her family does not receive help to pay for medical expenses.
But help is at hand, claims the message, because the Make-A-Wish Foundation has agreed to donate £7 each and every time that the message is sent on. Supposedly, all the recipient need do to help poor little Amy is simply repost the message.
An example of the hoax message:
7 yr old with Cancer (this child is local) Hi, my name is Amy Bruce. I am 7 years old, and I have a large tumor on my brain and severe lung cancer. The doctors say I will die soon if this isn’t fixed, and my family can’t pay the bills. ‘The Make A Wish Foundation’ has agreed to donate £7 for every time this message is sent on. For those of you who send this along, I thank you so much. But for those who don’t send it, I will still pray for you..(HOW CAN WE REFUSE TO PASS THIS ALONG )
