Description:

Grayson is my my 29 year old son who is developmentally delayed due to a rare chromosome disorder called "Ring 4". More information on this disorder can be found HERE

He is turning 30 this year & just broke his collar bone falling down a couple of stairs, so he would love to receive your Birthday & Get Well wishes. He LOVES receiving mail & get so excited just seeing his name on the envelope, much less the card itself. LOL!

He hangs his cards up & decorates his bedroom (he calls it his apartment) door with them. He keeps them up for a long time b/c he likes them so much. When he is ready to take them down & replace it with something new I punch a hole in them & hang them on binder rings so he can go back & look at them any time he likes.

Most of my family & in laws are either jerks, or not interested in having a relationship with Grayson. It’s a shame for them too because they are the ones missing out on what a wonderful person Grayson is & all the love he has to share.


So...for this swap you will send Grayson a Birthday card & your partner an Un-birthday card. Since Un-Birthday cards are not typically available in stores, you can make your own or modify a regular birthday card to make it an Un-Birthday card. You can do this by simply writing "un" in front of the word Birthday on your card.

Grayson is pretty easy to please. I have listed several "likes" in the comment section below. Please know that he will enjoy your card just as much even if does not contain any extras.

I will PM the mailing address when partners are assigned or you can message me ahead of time if you like.

Thank you for joining & making Grayson feel special.

  • Collar bone - Grayson tripped on the leg of his pajama pants when he was going up the stairs. He fell over & down 3 or 4 steps. He has to wear a sling for at least 6 weeks. He is very sore & a little depressed. He is having a hard time b/c it hurts to move his right (dominant hand.)

RULES: NEWBIES WELCOME! No recent and/or unexplained 1's or 3's. Must have a good swapping history & a well filled out profile. I will be checking participants VERY THOROUGHLY before assigning partners. If you have a concern about someone who has signed up please let me know privately.

  • Power Rangers

  • The Wiggles

  • All Disney, Pixar, Nickelodeon & other cartoon characters.

  • Popcorn

  • Gum - not spicy

  • Children's books – (new or used) ones that he can practice reading & ones that his dad can read to him before bed.

  • Comics & Graphic novels - ( new & used)

  • Blind bags & boxes - (re-packaged doubles are fine)

  • $1 bill – He puts all his money in a cash box (with a lock – LOL) to go to movies, & shows. Since Corona he has not been able to go anywhere, but he is saving to go to Power Morphicon next year. There are lots of Megazords from Japan that he wants for his collection.

  • $2 bill -Grayson says that these are magic money & he saves every one he gets.
