Nathan Norman (left), 5, prayed with his family at dinner as he prepared to meet with some special holiday guest Thursday.

More than 250 police officers from New England have turned the words “blue Christmas” on their head. With the lights of more than 100 cruisers flashing on a 700-mile journey Wednesday from the ­Burlington Mall to rural Virginia, the officers escorted a cache of Christmas cards for a 5-year-old boy suffering from brain and spinal cancer.

It is a special delivery of holiday greetings for Nathan Norman, a terminally ill child from Rustburg, Va., who is expected to receive their cards, gifts, and good wishes Thursday morning.

yup. we sent patches and cards as well. great story

Several local Law Enforcement agencies from South Florida sent patches and cards. It was cool to see a story in the local paper about a family the Liberty was assisting as well.

Yep, I sent a card as well. Truly amazing what the little ones really desire.

Check out their facebook page. Their house is full of packages. Like hoarder full. I'm sure they're very appreciative of all of the support and gestures but that's gotta be pretty overwhelming. On a side note, the SWAT truck is at their house right now and that is pretty awesome. I hope they take him for a ride and crash through some walls or something.

The same kid that earlier in the year had a faux signing day ceremony to "sign" to play baseball at Lynchburg College.

What an awesome story. I live about 15 minutes from the Burlington Mall, and it's all over the local news here.

VERY COOL

huge props to LU and Bedford PD for supporting this

And of course the LU haters are gritting their teeth in their basements reading this story because it doesnt underly their idea that LU is the "great evil" or something

Saw this on our local NBC news here in Eastern NC... they didn't say Liberty, but I caught the monogram in the background of an interview.
