After 13-year-old Noah scheduled a suicide for his birthday, his mother asked friends on Facebook to send letters to her son telling him how special he was. She was hoping for at least a couple responses.
What happened next is a remarkable testament to both the power of social media and the kindness of strangers.
“I know it is hard to believe right now, but life gets better. I promise,” Noah read from one letter.
He has received thousands of letters from every continent on the planet, including Antarctica.
The sheer volume has lit a light in their lives.

Very moving. Fantastic story.
I’m so happy that Noah received so much support and decided not to end his life. Everyone’s life is valuable and definitely worth living!:)
