UM Mott: patient christmas list
The good people over at Mott have made a patient Wishlist for Christmas. It’s pretty simple just buy off amazon and it’s shipped to the hospital. Let’s bring some mgocheer to the children’s hospital.

Excellent OP. Thanks for sharing this!
I'm in.

A buddy shared this on Facebook, I thought it would be a nice change up from all the negative we have all endured on this board lately
December 10th, 2019 at 12:43 PM ^
My favorite post this year!

Sometimes I forget what makes Michigan special, it’s not always about winning football games to be The leaders and best!

When I click on the link it says that there are no items on the list.
December 10th, 2019 at 1:07 PM ^
I just tried from 3 different browsers all worked.
December 10th, 2019 at 2:09 PM ^
On Safari in Mexico. Copied and pasted link into Google and could see the list, but after I signed in, it only gives my known addresses to ship to.
December 10th, 2019 at 1:13 PM ^
Try again? I get a really long list of items. There is a small handful of bigger ticket items ($50+ up to $184 for the Lego DeLorean set), but most are in the $5-$30 range.
EDIT: $199.50 for the LEGO Friends Olivia's House 3315 (discontinued) item.
Looks like it will be tough to get everything, as many are no longer available on Amazon or only available through 3rd party sellers.

When I clicked the link it defaulted to a delivery location of Canada. Not sure if that's the issue, but I'm presently not near Canada.
Everyone should double check gifts go to the right place, and hopefully it works.
Great post, OP.

Thanks for posting this. I'm going to threadjack a bit if you don't mind.
If you live in or near Royal Oak, Beaumont Hospital is doing a thing for their pediatric patients stuck in the hospital during December called Moon Beams for Sweet Dreams. Bring a flashlight and let the kids know that people are thinking about them.
December 10th, 2019 at 1:29 PM ^
I live in Royal Oak as well, I’ll have to take part.
December 10th, 2019 at 1:40 PM ^
Moonbeams is really neat. I highly recommend it. We've gone at least a few nights each of the last two years. We're taking the Cub Scouts tomorrow, and one of my 13-year-olds insists that we do this on Christmas Eve again this year. (Kid has a huge heart.) Try to turn i to Beaumont by about 7:30, as there's often a bit of a traffic jam. What a great problem.

We haven't done it yet but our elementary school is scheduled for next week. If the weather is decent it's close enough for us to walk.
December 10th, 2019 at 4:51 PM ^
Did this on a Friday for my kid school for the first time. Definitely recommend it.

Awesome post. Just snagged the last Rex doll from Toy Story. Much rather be able to give in person and donate time as well but glad to help in any way.
December 10th, 2019 at 1:30 PM ^
Love everything about this post!

Love everything about this post!
December 10th, 2019 at 1:31 PM ^
Loved it so much I had to say it twice apparently.
December 10th, 2019 at 1:36 PM ^
If you *really* loved it you would have triple-posted . . . .
December 10th, 2019 at 1:37 PM ^
Great job posting this.
December 10th, 2019 at 2:09 PM ^
I'm in for this thanks for sharing W-Are-B
December 10th, 2019 at 2:22 PM ^
Done! That felt good!
December 10th, 2019 at 3:04 PM ^
Definitely one of the more appropriate uses for the money cannon!
Thanks for sharing!
December 10th, 2019 at 3:08 PM ^
Anyone got a link for the Iowa Children's Hospital list too?
December 10th, 2019 at 6:45 PM ^
This is the only one I've seen:

Thanks for posting. Did my share.

Thanks for posting this, I had no idea this was a thing! I was a "preemie" who was born almost two months early at Mott after stopping moving in the womb, very happy to send them something in return.
So wholesome.

Great job bringing this to everyone's attention OP!
You should be a Known Friend and Trusted Agent of the Week.

Thanks for posting this. That was fun.
December 10th, 2019 at 6:48 PM ^
Thanks for the info and the positive post!
December 10th, 2019 at 7:33 PM ^
Thanks, OP, for sharing this link.
Nothing breaks my heart more than hearing about sick children. We are very lucky to have Mott (and the rest of Michigan Medicine) here in Ann Arbor.
Legos gifts on the way.
December 10th, 2019 at 11:33 PM ^
Can the moms pin this to the front page?
December 11th, 2019 at 1:47 AM ^
Count me in - time to fire up the money cannon.
Hail!
